Answer:

A = 0.023 m

Explanation:

The relation between the frequency of a radiation and its wavelength is given by the following expression.

where,

c is the speed of light (it has a constant value of 3.00 x 108 m/s)

A is the wavelength of the radiation v is the frequency of the radiation

In this case, the frequency is 13 GHz = 13 x

10° Hz = 13 x 1o° s-

The wavelength associated with this frequency is:

A = c/v = (3.00 x 10° m/s)/(13 x 10° s-") = 0.023

Under standard-state conditions, which of the following species is the best reducing agent? a. Ag+ b. Pb c. H2 d. Ag e. Mg2+
eimsori [14]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option b.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Reducing agents are defined as the agents which help the other substance to get reduced and itself gets oxidized. They undergo oxidation reaction.

X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-

For determination of reducing agents, we will look at the oxidation potentials of the substance. Oxidation potentials can be determined by reversing the standard reduction potentials.

For the given options:

  • <u>Option a:</u>  Ag^+

This ion cannot be further oxidized because +1 is the most stable oxidation state of silver.

  • <u>Option b:</u>  Pb

This metal can easily get oxidized to Pb^{2+} ion and the standard oxidation potential for this is 0.13 V

Pb\rightarrow Pb^{2+}+2e^-;E^o_{(Pb/Pb^{2+})}=+0.13V

  • <u>Option c:</u>  H_2

This metal can easily get oxidized to H^{+} ion and the standard oxidation potential for this is 0.0 V

H_2\rightarrow 2H^++2e^-;E^o_{(H_2/H^{+})}=0.0V

  • <u>Option d:</u>  Ag

This metal can easily get oxidized to Ag^{+} ion and the standard oxidation potential for this is -0.80 V

Ag\rightarrow Ag^{+}+e^-;E^o_{(Ag/Ag^{+})}=-0.80V

  • <u>Option e:</u>  Mg^{2+}

This ion cannot be further oxidized because +2 is the most stable oxidation state of magnesium.

By looking at the standard oxidation potential of the substances, the substance having highest positive E^o potential will always get oxidized and will undergo oxidation reaction. Thus, considered as strong reducing agent.

From the above values, the correct answer is Option b.

At which point on the roller coaster will the car have the greatest amount of Kinetic energy?
Elena-2011 [213]
I’m going to say the answer is most likely X because memetic energy is energy being used at that moment. Because the coaster is going fastest at X we can assume that the answer is X

If 45 mL of water are added to 250 mL of a 0.75 M K2SO4 solution, what will the molarity of the diluted solution be?
krok68 [10]

Answer:

\large\boxed{\large\boxed{0.64M}}

Explanation:

When you form a <em>diluted solution</em> from a mother (concentrated) solution, the moles of solute are determined by the mother solution.

The main equation is:

Molarity=\dfrac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{volume of the solution in liters}}

Then, since the moles of solute is the same for both the mother solution and the diluted solution:

          \text{Molarity mother solution }\times\text{ volume mother solution}=\\\\=\text{Molarity diluted solution }\times\text{ volume diluted solution}

Substitute and solve for the molarity of the diluted solution:

           250mL\times 0.75M=(45mL+250mL)\times M\\\\\\M=\dfrac{250mL\times 0.75M}{295mL}=0.64M

A scientist develops a new experiment to test atomic theory. His results do not agree with the theory.
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

When the results of a new experiment to test atomic theory do not agree with the theory, scientist will repeat the experiment to make sure that his results are reliable.

Explanation:

In the scientific context, each new experiment must be performed with precision and following the steps of the scientific method.

An experiment that does not provide reliable data to demonstrate a theory must be reviewed in detail and performed again to confirm the data obtained in the first attempt.

A theory is a postulate that tries to explain a natural phenomenon, but whose argument can be discussed or does not have the acceptance of a law. When the theory is proven and there are no arguments against it, it can be universally accepted and becomes a law.

The other options are not valid due to:

  • <u><em>Scientists worldwide will reject atomic theory because of the new results</em></u><em>.  A theory cannot be discarded without solid arguments or evidence in order to dismiss it and establish a new one.</em>
  • <u><em>The scientist will change his results to agree with the accepted theory</em></u><em>.  This would be an unethical procedure and unacceptable to the scientific community.</em>
  • <em><u>Other scientists will reject the results because they do not agree with the theory</u></em><em>. The opinion of other scientists is not enough to dismiss a theory, if it has a valid scientific basis.</em>
