Five valence electrons for one nitrogen and 10 valence electrons for two nitrogens
Answer:
B) diffraction
Explanation:
A smooth pane of glass does not diffract light. A light passing through a smooth pane of glass may be absorbed, reflected or transmitted.
Diffraction only occurs with special types of glasses embedded with a diffraction grating and are called super prisms. Diffraction glasses use a a gradient lens which is able to separate light into all the colors of the rainbow.
Recall that diffraction is the separation of white light into its component wavelengths.
Answer:
b. primitive cubic < body-centered cubic < face-centered cubic
Explanation:
The coordination number is defined as <em>the number of atoms (or ions) surrounding an atom (or ion) in a crystal lattice</em>. Its value gives us a measure of how tightly the spheres are packed together. The larger the coordination number, the closer the spheres are to each other.
- In the <u>primitive cubic</u>, each sphere is in contact with 6 spheres, so its <u>coordination number is 6</u>.
- In the <u>body-centered cubic</u>, each sphere is in contact with 8 spheres, so its <u>coordination number is 12</u>.
- In the <u>face-centered cubic</u>, each sphere is in contact with 12 spheres, so its <u>coordination number is 12</u>.
Therefore, the increasing order in density is the primitive cubic first, then the body-centered cubic, and finally the face-centered cubic.
