<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The experiment performed by Thomas Young was named as double-slit experiment. In this experiment, he demonstrated the wave theory of the light.

In the experiment, he took a point source of light which illuminated two narrow adjacent slits on the screen and the image formed by the light were passed through the slits and was observed on the second screen.

The regions of dark and light regions were called as interference fringes which were caused by the constructive and the destructive interference of light waves.

Hence, he concluded that the pattern that was caused was due to the interference of the waves.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option C.

Balance the following reaction. A coefficient of "1" is understood. Choose option "blank" for the correct answer if the
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

2NH₂ + O₂ → N₂ + 2H₂O

<u>Explanation:</u>

Balancing the equation means, the number of atoms on both sides of the equation must be the same.

In the case of the given equation, we have to find out whether it is balanced or not.

2NH₂ + O₂ →  N₂ + 2H₂O

Atoms       Number of atoms before balancing     after balancing

                 LHS                 RHS                                    LHS         RHS

N               1                        2                                            2              2

H               2                       2                                            4              4                        

O               2                       1                                            2                2

To balance the N atoms, we have to put 2 in front of NH₂, and then to balance the H, O atoms, we have to put 2 in front of H₂O, so that each atom in left hand as well as right hand side of the equation was balanced.
