Argon is a pure element which means that it cannot be broken down further than it already is. Methane, however, is a hydrocarbon, which means it is made out of both hydrogen and carbon and thus can be broken down to separate those elements.

Low energy waves have (3 points)
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Low energy waves have <u>a long wavelength.</u>

Explanation:

Energy of wave is directly related to  the frequency while it is inversely proportional to the wavelength.

If any wave have high energy it will have high frequency and smaller wavelength.

If the wave have lower energy then it will have lower frequency and higher wavelength.

Mathematical relationship:

E = h. f

E = h. c/λ

E= energy

h = planck's constant

f = frequency

c = speed of light

λ = wavelength
