Describe how light waves interact with the clothes you are wearing and your eyes.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Tom [10]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

You have read that EM waves can interact with a material medium in

the same ways that mechanical waves do. Three forms of interaction

play an especially important role in how people see light. One form is

reflection. Most things are visible because they reflect light. The two

other forms of interaction are transmission and absorption.

Transmission is the passage of an EM wave

through a medium. If the light reflected from objects did not pass

through the air, windows, or most of the eye, we could not see the

objects. Absorption is the disappearance of an

EM wave into the medium. Absorption affects how things look, because

it limits the light available to be reflected or transmitted.

  1. Compounds are formed when two or more <u>elements</u> are chemically combined.
  2. When these elements are <u>chemically</u> combined, a new substance is formed with new chemical and physical <u>properties</u>.
  3. An element is a <u>pure</u> substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances by <u>physical</u> or chemical means.
  4. A compound is two or more elements <u>combined</u> chemically to produce a new substance.
  5. When two or more elements chemically combine, the compound has new properties, different from the chemical and physical properties of the <u>original</u> elements.

<h3>What is a chemical element?</h3>

A chemical element can be defined as a pure substance which comprises atoms that have the same atomic number (number of protons) in its nuclei and as such it is the primary constituent of matter.

Generally, some examples of a chemical element include the following:

  1. Argon.
  2. Sodium.
  3. Carbon.
  4. Oxygen.
  5. Hydrogen.
  6. Phosphorus
  7. Copper
  8. Aluminum
  9. Potassium
  10. Magnesium

<h3>What is a pure substance?</h3>

A pure substance can be defined as a single sample of matter that cannot be separated into other kinds of matter through the use of any physical or chemical separating technique because it has distinct chemical properties and a definite and constant composition.

If an element has more than one ionic charge, how is that piece of information represented in a chemical name?
solmaris [256]
Usually with roman numerals, like iron (II) chromate
iron has a charge of 2
or manganese (IV) oxide, manganese has a charge of 4
(these are ionic compounds just to let you know)

It is observed that the atoms of hydrogen in gas discharge tube emit radiations whose spectrum shows line characteristics (line
azamat

Answer: the line Spectra of hydrogen lies between the ultra-violet, visible light and infra-red of the electro magnetic spectrum

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation spans an wide range of wavelengths and frequencies. This range is called the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum is generally divided into seven regions, in order of decreasing wavelength and increasing energy and frequency. The 7 regions includes; radio waves, microwaves, infrared (IR), visible light, ultraviolet (UV), X-rays and gamma rays.

lower-energy radiation, such as radio waves, is expressed as frequency while microwaves, infrared, visible and UV light are usually expressed as wavelength and finally, higher-energy radiation such as X-rays and gamma rays, is expressed in terms of energy per photon.

Therefore, hydrogen lies between the ultra-violet, visible light and infra-red region of the electro magnetic spectrum.

What happens to matter when it’s burned?well mayb its distroying the matter
Solnce55 [7]
Matter can neither be created or destroyed, it may seem as though burning destroys matter but the same amount (mass) of the matter still exists. The matter changes into a new substance(s) such as ash, gas and water vapor.
