Answer:

Capillary action

Explanation:

love history [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Answer is option B . This is because water is said to be highly permeable to the underground soil and thus nourishes it , whereas capillary action will make the water flow upward sllowly , but the water is going underground so it is permeability. Also soil is porous too , but that's only if the water is in the soil , here the water is caused to go underground by some force , so porosity isnt the right option

How is a covalent bond formed between two atoms?
Sati [7]

Answer:

A covalent bond consists of the mutual sharing of one or more pairs of electrons between two atoms. These electrons are simultaneously attracted by the two atomic nuclei. A covalent bond forms when the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is too small for an electron transfer to occur to form ions.

Which theory was contradicted by experiments with the photoelectric effect?
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Wave theory of light that states that visible light irrespective of its color, can cause the ejection of electrons when it strikes a metal.

Explanation:

Wave theory of light:

  1. If we go through wave theory of light, it clearly focuses that light is of actually wave nature not particle nature.
  2. The wave theory was based on the ideas of Hertz who discovered in 1887 that metallic surface can emit heat energy (electrons) when light hits the metal.  If we increase the intensity of light, it will also increase the incident energy and ultimately increase the kinetic energy of electrons.  
  3. Moreover, the frequency of light do not matters much, just a beam of light can eject the electrons from the metal.

Photoelectric effect:

On the other hand, Photoelectric effect can be considered only if we assume that light has particle like nature and not wave like nature.  

  1. It also says that frequency of light matters alot in ejecting the electrons from the metals. If the frequency of light is less, it will not eject electrons from the metal surface even if it falls on metal for a very long time.
  2. It also says that  maximum kinetic energy of the electrons (that are emitted) corresponds with the light frequency that caused the emission of electrons.
  3. The current of emitted electrons is directly proportional to the intensity of light that caused the electron emission.

We can see that the postulates of wave theory (like no.3) are just opposite to the postulates of photoelectric effect. The photoelectric effect also explained the relationship between emitted electrons and light in a better way that was not described by wave theory. We can say that it is as advanced explanation of facts based on the classical theory of wave like nature of visible light.

When 1 mol CS2(l) forms from its elements at 1 atm and 25°C, 89.7 kJ of heat is absorbed, and it takes 27.7 kJ to vaporize 1 mol
Kitty [74]

Answer:

There is 117.4 kJ of heat absorbed

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Number of moles CS2 = 1 mol

Temperature = 25° = 273 +25 = 298 Kelvin

Heat absorbed = 89.7 kJ

It takes 27.7 kJ to vaporize 1 mol of the liquid

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate the heat that is absorbed

C(s) + 2S(s) → CS2(l)    ΔH = 89.7 kJ  (positive since heat is absorbed)

CS2(l) → CS2(g)           ΔH = 27.7 kJ  (positive since heat is absorbed)

We should balance the equations, before summing, but since they are already balanced, we don't have to change anything.

C(s) + 2S(s)---> CS2 (g)

ΔH = 89.7 + 27.7 = 117.4 kJ

There is 117.4 kJ of heat absorbed
