The most common method astronomers use to determine the composition of stars, planets, and other objects is spectroscopy. This process utilizes instruments with a grating that spreads out the light from an object by wavelength. This spread-out light is called a spectrum. Every element has a unique fingerprint that allows researchers to determine what it is made of.
The fingerprint often appears as the absorption of light. Every atom has electrons, and these electrons like to stay in their lowest-energy levels. But when photons carrying energy hit an electron, they can push it to higher energy levels. This is absorption, and each element’s electrons absorb light at specific wavelengths related to the difference between energy levels in that atom. But the electrons want to return to their original levels, so they don’t hold onto the energy for long. When they emit the energy, they release photons with exactly the same wavelengths of light that were absorbed in the first place. An electron can release this light in any direction, so most of the light is emitted in directions away from our line of sight. Therefore, a dark line appears in the spectrum at that particular wavelength.
Because the wavelengths at which absorption lines occur are unique for each element, astronomers can measure the position of the lines to determine which elements are present in a target. The amount of light that is absorbed can also provide information about how much of each element is present.
Vinegar is aceti acid diluted in water.
The reaction of vinegar with sodium hydroxide is:
CH3COOH + NaOH ---> CH3COONa + H2O
That is an acid-base reaction.
The speed of reaction is proportional to the concentrations of the reactants.
Then, given thatn when you dilute the vinegar you decrease the concentration of CH3COOH, the rate of reaction will decrease.
Answer: decrease the rate of reaction.
Answer:
Primary structure is the correct answer.
Explanation:
- The primary structure is the simple level of protein structure.
- Primary structure is a basic amino acids sequences in a protein.
- In the primary structure, amino acids are attached together by a covalent bond.
- Primary structure is when the amino acids are joined together with peptide bonds to produce polypeptide chains
- Changes in pH are least likely to change the amino acid sequence or disrupt peptide bonds.
