Humans have three types of cone cells in their eyes, which are responsible for color vision. Each type absorbs a certain part of

the visible spectrum. Suppose a particular cone cell absorbs light with a wavelength of 430. nm . Calculate the frequency of this light. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

Answer:

The frequency of this light is 6.98\times 10^{14} s^{-1}.

Explanation:

Wavelength of the light = \lambda = 430 nm=4.30\times 10^{-7} m

Speed of the light = c = = 3\times 10^8 m/s

Frequency of the light = \nu

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

\nu =\frac{3\times 10^8 m/s}{4.30\times 10^{-7} m}=6.98\times 10^{14} s^{-1}

The frequency of this light is 6.98\times 10^{14} s^{-1}.

Answer: The balance of the reaction shifts toward the endothermic reaction.

Explanation:

An ENDOTHERMIC REACTION requires input of HEAT ENERGY to drive it FORWARD from reactants, unto completion of products.

So, on increasing the temperature (available heat) the REVERSIBLE REACTION favors the shifts towards the endothermic reaction

Describe where the "Reference Carbon" (the one that determines if the structure is D or L) is located in a carbohydrate with mor
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Farthest from the carbonyl carbon.

Explanation:

Reference carbon that determined the absolute D and L configuration is located farthest from the carbonyl carbon.

In other words, reference carbon is that assymentric carbon which is located farthest from the carbolyl carbon and has configuration similar to D- or L-glyceraldehyde isomers.

D and L configuration is decided by the direction of -OH group attached to the reference carbon.

In L-isomer, -OH group is attached to the left side of the reference carbon and in D-isomer, -OH group is attached to the right side of the reference carbon.

When a radioactive isotope releases an alpha particle, the atomic number of the atom is (2 points)
natali 33 [55]
When alpha decay takes place, two protons and two neutrons are forcefully ejected from the nucleus in a way that looks very similar to a Helium nucleus. This type of decay causes the atomic mass of the parent particle to drop by four (four particles lost), but the atomic number drops by only two (two protons lost). Therefore, your answer is C.
