Question

How radio telescopes to identify the chemical compounds that are present in interstellar clouds?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Interstellar clouds is generally is the combination of plasma , ions , gases on our and other galaxies. They contains a lot of ions , molecules and atoms in interstellar.  

Radio telescope is the device which detect EM waves of particular frequency in radio waves.

Also the molecules and the chemical compounds presents in interstellar emits waves of radio frequency , so they will be easily detected by radio telescopes.

This is the reason for identification of chemical compounds by radio telescopes.

Thanks

Answer 2

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

• The radio telescope is a specialized antenna and receives the radio and emits radio waves in the sky and studies light waves patterns in the sky and are typically called as the parabolic antennas.

• The inter seller cloud is a composition of the dust and gases, plasma and as a radioactive matter, it radiates hat exists in the space and made up of the hydrogenized ions referring to the molecular clouds.

• Due to the electromagnetic radiation emitted from the clouds the antennas receive radio to visible to gamma rays of the spectrum and have EM radio have a longer wavelength and thus radio telescope can scan them at any point in time.
