Answer:

radiation

Explanation:

Heat transfer is the process of propagating heat in different media. Three types of heat transfer are known: conduction, convection and radiation

The transfer by radiation is given at a distance. In fact, at any distance, as long as there is nothing that absorbs that energy along the way, and does not need a means to propagate.

28 ml of 0.10 m hcl is added to 60 ml of 0.10 m sr(oh)2. determine the concentration of oh− in the resulting solution.
Blababa [14]
Here is an acid-base reaction. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) reacts with strontium hydroxide [ Sr(OH)2 ]

Ions H+ and OH- neutralize each other. If the amounts are not equal, one of them will be in excess. 
Follow the steps as

1. Find moles of ions: mole= Molarity * Volume (in liter) ; n= M * V OR millimole = Molarity * Volume (in ml) ;
2. Write the equation
3. Find out excess ion
4. Use final volume (V acid + V base ) to calculate concentration of excess ion.

n HCI = 28 ml * 0.10 M = 0.28 mmol, releases 0.28 mmol H+ ions
n Sr(OH)2= 60 ml * 0.10 M= 0.60 mmol, releases 2* 0.60=1.20 mmol OH- ions
since Sr(OH)2⇒ Sr2+ + 2OH-

Neutralization reaction is OH- + H+ ---> H2O. The ratio is 1:1. That means 1 mmol hydroxide ions will neutralize 1 mmol hydrogen ions. Since OH- ions are greater in amount, they will be in excess

n(OH-) - n(H+)= 1.20 - 0.28 = 0.92 mmol OH- ions UNREACTED.

Total volume= V acid + V base= 28 ml + 60 ml = 98 ml

Molarity of OH- ions= mole / Vtotal = 0.92/98= 0.009 M

The answer is 0.009 M.

How many oxygen (O) atoms are involved in this chemical reaction?<br><br> 2Fe(OH)3 — Fe2O3 + 3H20
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

6 oxygen atoms

Explanation:

From the equation,

2Fe(OH)₃ → Fe₂O₃ + 3H₂O

From the reactant (left hand side) we have 2 moles of Fe(OH)₃ having (2 * 3 = 6) atoms of oxygen and decomposed to give Fe₂O₃ which contains 3 atoms of oxygen and 3 moles of water that also contains 3 atoms of oxygen.

Since the number of oxygen participating in the reaction is independent on the product (not a reversible reaction) then the total number of oxygen atoms participating in the reaction is 6

What is the best description of what Becquerel observed in his experiment?
myrzilka [38]

The answer is: D.unstable nuclei emitting high-energy particles as they formed more stable compositions.

Those high-energy particles are alpha particles , beta particles , gamma radiation.

For example, the decay chain of ²³⁸U is called the uranium series.

Decay start with U-238 and ends with Pb-206. There are several alpha and beta minus decays.

Antoine Henri Becquerel (1852 – 1908) was a French physicist and the first person to discover evidence of radioactivity.

Becquerel wrapped fluorescing crystal (uranium salt potassium uranyl sulfate) in a cloth, along with the photographic plate and a copper Maltese cross.

Several days later, he discovered that a image of the cross appeared on the plate.

The uranium salt was emitting radiation.

Because of this discovery, Becquerel won a Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903, which he shared with Marie Curie and Pierre Curie.

From a scientific viewpoint, why do many desert dwellers elect to wear white or light-colored garments
alexandr1967 [171]
Darker colors absorb sunlight more, so it will become hotter. Lighter colored clothes will better reflect sun so they will be less hot.

Hope that helped
