Answer: The frequency of this light is 6.62\times 10^{14}s^{-1}

Explanation:

To calculate the wavelength of light, we use the equation:

\lambda=\frac{c}{\nu}

where,

\lambda = wavelength of the light =453nm=453\times 10^{-9}m

c = speed of light = 3.0\times 10^8m/s

\nu = frequency of light = ?

\nu=\frac{3.0\times 10^8m/s}{453\times 10^{-9}m}=6.62\times 10^{14}s^{-1}

The frequency of this light is 6.62\times 10^{14}s^{-1}

Why is U-235 the most common nuclear fuel instead of the more abundant U-238? State a clear topic sentence and support it with e
GREYUIT [131]
<h3><u>Answer and explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>The isotope U-235 is an important common nuclear fuel because under certain conditions it can readily be split, yielding a lot of energy. It is therefore said to be 'fissile' and use the expression 'nuclear fission'.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Uranium 238 on the other hand is not fissionable by thermal neutrons, but it can undergo fission from fast or high energy neutrons. Hence it is not fissile, but it is fissionable.</u></em>
  • In a nuclear power station fissioning of uranium atoms replaces the burning of coal or gas.  Heat created by splitting the U-235 atoms is then used to make steam which spins a turbine to drive a generator, producing electricity.

What would be the products for the reaction Br2 + KI →? (Just identify the correct products for the reaction. You do not need to
Savatey [412]

<u>Answer:</u> The products of the reaction will be I_2\text{ and }KBr

<u>Explanation:</u>

Single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its chemical reaction.

The general chemical equation for the single displacement reaction follows:

A+BC\rightarrow AC+B

The given chemical equation follows:

Br_2+2KI\rightarrow I_2+2KBr

Bromine element is more reactive than iodine element. Thus, can easily replace iodine from its chemical reaction.

Hence, the products of the reaction will be I_2\text{ and }KBr

In general, what is the effect if increased temperature on the solubility of a gas
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Increased temperature causes an increase in kinetic energy. The higher kinetic energy causes more motion in the gas molecules which break intermolecular bonds and escape from solution.
