<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em><u>Red apple is opaque. It appear red because it reflects red light</u></em>.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

An opaque object is an object through which the light rays can not be passed and we can not see from that object while transparent object allows the passage of light.

Hence red apple is unable to pass light, so it is a opaque object.

Light is the combination of seven color rays. Different object absorbs different rays and reflect back other rays. The color of ray they reflect back is the color that we see.

Hence red apple looks red because it absorbs all color except red.

It is opaque because you can't see anything on the other side of the apple.


An apple is red because of the frequency of light shining on it makes it seem that it is red, as it is reflected. It seems it is red because it reflects infrared waves.

List the following carboxylic acid derivatives in decreasing order of reactivity in nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions: ac
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

<h2>acetyl chloride > acetic anhydride > methyl acetate > acetamide</h2>

Explanation:

Such kind of substitution reaction in which nucleophiles and the acyl compound interact is known as nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction. In this reaction, the interaction between carbonyl compounds and the nucleophile takes place by addition reaction. The reactivity of the acyl compound is based on the condition of the leaving group that is related to the acidity of the compounds. So the decreasing order of reactivity of the acyl compounds is, acetyl chloride > acetic anhydride > methyl acetate > acetamide.

When does heat naturally move from cooler objects to warmer objects
Blizzard [7]
<span>Conduction occurs when two object at different temperatures are in contact with each other. Heat flows from the warmer to the cooler object until they are both at the same temperature. Conduction is the movement of heat through a substance by the collision of molecules. At the place where the two object touch, the faster-moving molecules of the warmer object collide with the slower moving molecules of the cooler object. </span>

Transuranium elements are artificial and may be prepared by a fusion process in which heavy nuclei are bombarded with light ones
Scilla [17]

Answer:

_{97}^{345}\textrm{Bk}

Explanation:

In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.

Am has an atomic number of 95. So correct reaction is:-

^{343}_{95}\textrm{Am}+^{4}_{2}\textrm{He}\rightarrow ^A_Z\textrm{X}+2^1_0\textrm{n}

To calculate A:

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

343 + 4 = A + 2

A = 345

To calculate Z:

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

95 + 2 = Z + 0

Z = 97

Hence, the isotopic symbol of unknown element is _{97}^{345}\textrm{Bk}

6. The pOH of a solution of NaOH is 11.30. What is the [H+<br><br> ] for this solution?
sashaice [31]

Answer:

The [H⁺] for this soluton is 2*10⁻³ M

Explanation:

pH, short for Hydrogen Potential and pOH, or OH potential, are parameters used to measure the degree of acidity or alkalinity of substances.

The values ​​that compose them vary from 0 to 14 and the pH value can be directly related to that of pOH by means of:

pH + pOH= 14

In this case, pOH=11.30, so

pH + 11.30= 14

Solving:

pH= 14 - 11.30

pH= 2.7

Mathematically the pH is the negative logarithm of the molar concentration of the hydrogen or proton ions (H⁺) or hydronium ions (H₃O):

´pH= - log [H⁺] = -log [H₃O]

Being pH=2.7:

2.7= - log [H⁺]

[H⁺]= 10⁻² ⁷

[H⁺]=1.995*10⁻³ M≅ 2*10⁻³ M

<u><em>The [H⁺] for this soluton is 2*10⁻³ M</em></u>
