Answer:
A particle
Explanation:
Modern quantum theory holds that light has both wave-like and particle-like properties. When the length scales involved are large compared to the wavelengths of light (ex., forming images with thin lenses), the
particle nature of light dominates.
Answer : The final number of moles of gas that withdrawn from the tank to lower the pressure of the gas must be, 0.301 mol.
Explanation :
As we know that:

At constant volume and temperature of gas, the pressure will be directly proportional to the number of moles of gas.
The relation between pressure and number of moles of gas will be:

where,
= initial pressure of gas = 24.5 atm
= final pressure of gas = 5.30 atm
= initial number of moles of gas = 1.40 moles
= final number of moles of gas = ?
Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:


Therefore, the final number of moles of gas that withdrawn from the tank to lower the pressure of the gas must be, 0.301 mol.
Complete balanced equation: 2HNO₃ + Ca(OH)₂ → Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2H₂O
Ionized equation (with spectator ions):
2H⁺ + 2NO₃⁻ + Ca²⁺ + 2OH⁻ → Ca²⁺ + 2NO₃⁻ + 2H₂O
By eliminating the ions that are the same of both sides of the equation (spectator ions):
2H⁺ + 2OH⁻ → 2H₂O [Net Ionic Equation]
Answer: C. High surface tension
Explanation:
Water has high specific heat as it require high heat to raise the temperature of 1 g of water through
.
Surface tension is the net downward force acting on the surface of liquids due to the cohesive nature of liquids.
Water molecules are bonded by strong hydrogen bonding between the hydrogen atom and the electronegative oxygen atom making it polar. Thus water molecules present on the surface are strongly attracted by the molecules present below the surface and thus act as a stretched membrane.
The surface acquires a minimum surface are and thus acquire a spherical shape.
Explanation:
Some Rules Regarding Oxidation Numbers:
- Hydrogen has oxidation number of + 1 except in hydrides where it is -1
- Oxygen has oxidation number of -2 except in peroxides where it is -1
- Some elements have fixed oxidation numbers. E.g Halogen group elements has oxidation number of -1
- Oxidation number of a compound is the sum total of the individual elements and a neutral compound has oxidation number of 0.
