When might a galaxy appear redshifted and why?

Chemistry
1 answer:
mylen [45]3 years ago
6 0

Redshift is said to be experienced when the light or any other electromagnetic radiations from an object undergo an increase in the wavelength but it does not mean that the light literally becomes red.

Redshift occurs due to the expansion of space. It means the farther away the galaxy is from us, the more space it has expanded in the time.

Because as the light left the galaxy, more of the light has been stretched and so more redshifted the light is.

Problem PageQuestion Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume
IgorC [24]

Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume of hydrogen chloride would be produced by this reaction if 3.16 L of chlorine were consumed at STP.

Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer: Thus volume of carbon tetrachloride that would be produced is 0.788 L

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 1 atm  (at STP)

V = Volume of gas = 3.16 L

n = number of moles = ?

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =273K=

n=\frac{PV}{RT}

n=\frac{1atm\times 3.16L}{0.0820 L atm/K mol\times 273K}=0.141moles

CH_4+4Cl_2\rightarrow 4HCl+CCl_4

According to stoichiometry:

4 moles of chlorine produces = 1 mole of carbon tetrachloride

Thus 0.141 moles of methane produces = \frac{1}{4}\times 0.141=0.0352 moles of carbon tetrachloride

volume of carbon tetrachloride =moles\times {\text {Molar volume}}=0.0352mol\times 22.4L/mol=0.788L

Thus volume of carbon tetrachloride that would be produced is 0.788 L

24 g of magnesium were burned in oxygen. The compound formed had a mass of 40 g. Explain why the mass had gone up.
DIA [1.3K]

Answer :

According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of reactants must be equal to the mass of products.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

Mg+\frac{1}{2}O_2\rightarrow MgO

As we know that the molar mass of magnesium is 24 g/mole, the molar mass of O_2 is 32 g/mole and the molar mass of magnesium oxide is 40 g/mole.

From the given balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of magnesium react \frac{1}{2} mole of oxygen to give 1 mole of magnesium oxide.

So, the mass of Mg is 24 g, the mass of O_2=\frac{1}{2}\times 32=16g and the mass of MgO is 40 g.

That means 24 g of Mg react with 16 g O_2 to give 40 g of MgO.

A firefighter applies a force of 2 N to lift the fire hose 3 meters up a ladder to put out a fire. How much work has the firefig
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

6 J

Explanation: Work done(J) = Force(N) × Distance(m) along the direction of force.

Given, Force=2 N, Distance=3 meters

∴ Wok done (J) = 2 × 3 = 6 J.
