Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In a solid, molecules are held together by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. As a result, they are unable to move from their initial place but they can vibrate at their mean position.  

Hence, in solid substances the molecules have low kinetic energy.

Whereas in liquids, the molecules are held by less strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to solids. Due to which they are able to slide past each other. Hence, they have high kinetic energy as compared to molecules of a solid.

Therefore, as sample D is retaining its shape so, it is a solid.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement D is a solid because it retains its shape correctly describes the state of matter of one of the samples.

A spectral line has a wavelength of 7.35 *10-7 m. What is the energy of this radiation?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

2.7 x 10^-19 J

Explanation:

The formula needed for this problem is

E = hν

where E = energy, h = Planck's constant = 6.626x10^-34 and ν is the frequency

c = λν

where c = speed of light = 3x10^8, and λ = wavelength

3x10^8 = 7.35x10^-7 . ν

ν = 4.08 x 10^14 Hz

E = 6.626x10^-34 . 4.08x10^14 = 2.7 x 10^-19 J

The element carbon continuously Cycles through an ecosystem. A simplified carbon cycle showing Step I, where organic molecules (
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Organic molecules in the form of carbohydrates are created during photosynthesis or chemosynthesis and these processes cause carbon to be removed from the atmosphere or other environment into the biosphere - the living organisms of the ecosystem.

During photosynthesis, atmospheric carbon dioxide is fixed as carbohydrates into green plants in a two-stage process that requires sunlight energy and water. The entire process can be summarized as an equation below:

6CO_2 + 6H_2O + sunlight --> C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6O_2

Instead of using water as a reactant, chemosynthetic organisms make use of high energy chemicals such as hydrogen sulfide to fix carbon dioxide in order to generate carbohydrates.

CO_2 + 4H_2S + O_2 -> CH_20 + 4S + 3H_2O

Both processes ensure that carbon dioxide moves from the environment into living organisms.

Label the signals due to ha, hb, and hc in the 1h nmr spectra.
trapecia [35]
Structure along with ¹H-NMR is shown below.

Signal for Hₐ;
                     Based on multiplicity of of the peak, a Singlet peak (the only singlet peak present in spectrum) at 2.2 ppm was assigned to Hₐ. As the methyl group in not coupling with any other proton so it gave a singlet peak.

Signal for Hb;
                     Based on multiplicity of of the peak, a Quartet peak (the only quartet peak present in spectrum) at 2.4 ppm was assigned to Hb. As the methylene group in coupling with methyl group having three protons so it gave a Quartet peak.

Signal for Hc;
                     Based on multiplicity of of the peak, a Triplet peak (the only triplet peak present in spectrum) at 1.1 ppm was assigned to Hc. As the methyle group in coupling with methylene group having two protons so it gave a Triplet peak.
