<u>Answer:</u> The correct statements are refraction and diffraction both involve the bending of waves and refraction involves the bending of waves through a medium, and diffraction involves the bending of waves around an object.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Refraction is defined as the phenomena in which when a wave passes through a medium, the speed of wave changes due to the bending of waves in a medium.

Diffraction is defined as the phenomena which involves the bending of waves around an obstacle or an object. This phenomena also occurs when the waves spread out when they pass through a small opening and forms a pattern.

Hence, they are similar because they both involve bending of waves but they are different because in refraction the bending happens when the waves passes through a medium and in diffraction, the bending happens when the waves are around an object.

topjm [15]

Answer:

  • <u><em>1.7 × 10³ kg of ore.</em></u>

Explanation:

Call X the amount of aluminum ore mined to produce 1.0 × 10³ kg the aluminum metal.

Then, taking into account the yield of the reaction (82 % = 0.82) and the percent of aluminun in the ore (71% = 0.71), you can write the following equation:

  •  X         ×          71%                ×       82%     =     1.0 × 10³ kg

         ↑                      ↑                              ↑                     ↑

(mass of ore)    (% of Al in the ore)        (yield)        ( Al metal to obtain)

You must just simplify, solve and compute:

  • 0.71 × 0.82 × X = 1,000
  • X = 1,000 / (0.71 × 0.82) = 1,000 / 0.5822 = 1,717.6 Kg

Round to two significant figures; 1,700 kg = 1.7 × 10³ kg of ore ← answer.
