How does the type of medium affect a sound wave? Give an Example

Chemistry

Answer:

Sound waves need to travel through a medium such as solids, liquids and gases. The sound waves move through each of these mediums by vibrating the molecules in the matter. The molecules in solids are packed very tightly. Liquids are not packed as tightly.Of the three mediums (gas, liquid, and solid) sound waves travel the slowest through gases, faster through liquids, and fastest through solids. Temperature also affects the speed of sound.Sound waves in air (and any fluid medium) are longitudinal waves because particles of the medium through which the sound is transported vibrate parallel to the direction that the sound wave moves. A vibrating string can create longitudinal waves as depicted in the animation below.

H-1
bonufazy [111]
Answer = B = Neutrons and Mass Number

Isotopes 
are defined as those atoms which have same atomic number but different atomic masses.

Atomic mass is basically the number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.

Atomic number is the number of protons present in an atom.

So, in isotopes the number of protons are same but the number of neutrons vary due to which atomic masses also vary.
In given three isotopes, all have same number of protons but different number of neutrons.
i.e.
H-1 = 1 P + 0 N = 1 u (Proton)
H-2 = 1 P + 1 N = 2 u (Deuterium)
H-3 = 1 P + 2 N = 3 u (Tritium)

Hence, it is clear that the number after H shows a change in number of neutrons and mass number.

How many moles of carbonate are there in sodium carbonate​
vaieri [72.5K]

There are 0.566 moles of carbonate in sodium carbonate.

<h3>CALCULATE MOLES:</h3>
  • The number of moles of carbonate (CO3) in sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) can be calculated by dividing the mass of carbonate in the compound by the molar mass of the compound.

  • no. of moles of CO3 = mass of CO3 ÷ molar mass of Na2CO3

  • Molar mass of Na2CO3 = 23(2) + 12 + 16(3)

  • = 46 + 12 + 48 = 106g/mol

  • mass of CO3 = 12 + 48 = 60g

  • no. of moles of CO3 = 60/106

  • no. of moles of CO3 = 0.566mol

  • Therefore, there are 0.566 moles of carbonate in sodium carbonate.
