Answer:
D. As white light passes through a prism , it bends and separates into different colors
Explanation:
When light enters a prism, it experiences a phenomenon called 'refraction'.
Refraction occurs when light crosses the interface between two mediums with different optical density; when this happens, the light bends and also changes speed.
The angle at which the ray of light is refracted into the second medium depends on the optical density of the two mediums, but also on the wavelength of the light.
In particular, longer wavelengths (red color) are refracted the least, while shorter wavelengths (violet color) are refracted the most.
As a result, when white light (consisting of all the colors of visible light) enters into a prism, they different wavelengths are separated: therefore, white light separates into different colors.
So, the correct answer is
D. As white light passes through a prism , it bends and separates into different colors
Answer:
Covalent solids, also called network solids, are solids that are held together by covalent bonds. As such, they need localized electrons (shared between the atoms) and therefore the atoms are arranged in fixed geometries. Distortion far from this geometry can only occur through a breaking of covalent sigma bonds.
Barium nitrate and methane (CH4) are both soluble. They both will dissolve in water, however, barium nitrate will dissociate becoming barium 2+ ions and nitrate becoming NO3 1- ions. All nitrates are soluble and dissociate. CH4 is a weak base and does dissolves but doesn't dissociate. So in solubility terms.... they are both equally soluble just one happens to dissociate into its cations and anions. Hope this helps!
