apor lamp is similar to a mercury vapor lamp. Sodium displays a single visible emission line at 589.3 nm. Why is it better to use a mercury vapor lamp for calibration purposes

Answer: Please see answer below

Explanation:

Mecury vapor lamp is better to use than Sodium vapor light, this is because  because

---The Filaments of the lamp in sodium  emit fast moving electrons, which causes valence electrons of the sodium atoms to excite to higher energy levels which when electrons after being excited, relax by emitting yellow light which concentrates on the the  monochromatic bright yellow part of the visible spectrum which is about  580-590 or about (589nm) which will fall incident on the calibrations making it difficult to see

While

In Mercury vapor lamp, The emitted  electrons from the filaments, after having been excited  by high voltage, hit the mercury atoms but the excited electrons of mercury atoms relax and emits an  ultraviolet  uv invisible lights falling on the mecury vapour lamp to produce white light  covering  a wide range of  (380-780 nm) which is visible that is why it is used for calibrations purposes in  lightening applications.

Why is U-235 the most common nuclear fuel instead of the more abundant U-238? State a clear topic sentence and support it with e
GREYUIT [131]
<h3><u>Answer and explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>The isotope U-235 is an important common nuclear fuel because under certain conditions it can readily be split, yielding a lot of energy. It is therefore said to be 'fissile' and use the expression 'nuclear fission'.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Uranium 238 on the other hand is not fissionable by thermal neutrons, but it can undergo fission from fast or high energy neutrons. Hence it is not fissile, but it is fissionable.</u></em>
  • In a nuclear power station fissioning of uranium atoms replaces the burning of coal or gas.  Heat created by splitting the U-235 atoms is then used to make steam which spins a turbine to drive a generator, producing electricity.

When co2 levels are low and o2 levels are high, rubisco adds an o2 molecule to rubp. what are the consequences of this reaction?
marissa [1.9K]
Rubisco is an important enzyme that helps in making lifeless carbon of carbon dioxide into organic molecules. Rubisco takes carbon dioxide and attaches it to ribulose bisphosphate, a short sugar chain with five carbon atoms that has rubp as its shortcut. Rubisco then clips the lengthened chain into to polyglycerate pices, which are pretty flexible molecules and are also used in the feeding of the plant. Most of it is used in the photosynthesis pathway, but some of it is used to make sucrose (table sugar) to feed the rest of the plant, or stored away in the form of starch for later use. Hence, rubisco is crucial in the storing of the energy that is created from photosynthesis.
