Name 2 separate problems that occur when a sample for infrared analysis is contaminated with water.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Andreyy893 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

  • The water molecules gets trapped in the crystal structure to be analysed and will give a peak in the spectra at about 3500 /cm , and there by hindering with the IR spectra of the sample to be analysed .
  • The second problem with the contamination of the sample with water is , that water makes the potassium bromide disc opaque which will decrease the absorption of the IR by the sample .

45 Gg = [? ]x10!?g<br> ]<br> =<br> ]
nlexa [21]

1. The coefficient (green) is 45

2. The exponent (yellow) is 9

<h3>Conversion scale</h3>

To convert from giga grams (Gg) to grams (g), the following coversion scale can be use:

1 Gg = 10⁹ g

With the above convesion scale, we can convert 45 Gg to g as follow

1 Gg = 10⁹ g

Therefore,

45 Gg = 45×10⁹ g

Thus, 45 Gg is equivalent to 45×10⁹ g. Hence, we can conclude as follow:

  • The coefficient (green) is 45
  • The exponent (yellow) is 9

How do purple stem plants use there energy
tatuchka [14]
Purple stem plants can be formed by genetics, they use their energy slightly different from other plants, they use less energy, but that may also be because of bad nutrition, and because they may be hungry for nutrients.

The quinine in tonic water shines a strange blue-white colour when lit with UV light. Explain what is happening here.
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

Quinine contains phosphors, substances that glow when they are hit with certain wavelengths of light.

The phosphors in quinine absorb UV light, which is invisible to our eyes.

Electrons in the phosphors absorb the UV energy and are excited to higher energy levels.

When the electrons drop back to lower energy levels, they emit some of this energy as a glowing blue visible light.

polet [3.4K]
I remember coming across this question and the options were:
KOH, HCN, NH₃, HI, Sr(OH)₂

Now, a substance with a low pH is one that dissociates completely in water to release hydrogen ions, while basic substances dissociate completely to release hydroxide ions. Therefore, in the order of increasing pH:
HI, HCN, NH₃, Sr(OH)₂, KOH
