Within the visible range of light, red<span> light waves are scattered the least by atmospheric gas molecules. So at sunrise and </span>sunset, when the sunlight travels a long path through the atmosphere to reach our eyes, the blue light has been mostly removed, leaving mostly red<span> and yellow light remaining.</span>

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Magnesium is an alkali earth metal and chlorine is a nonmetal. Due to this, and their differences in electronegativity, the elements form an ionic bond. Since magnesium has two valence electrons, it will give them up to two chlorine atoms (which has 7 valence electrons), which needs them to complete its octet. From this, magnesium forms a cation, and will have the ion formula Mg(2+). The two chlorine atoms form anions, and will have the ion formula Cl(1-).

Terms:

  • Cation: a positively charged ion
  • Anion: a negatively charge ion.
  • Electronegativity: the tendency of an atom in a molecule to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself.

"A crosslinked copolymer consists of 57 wt% ethylene (C2H4) repeat units and 43 wt% propylene (C3H6) repeat units. Determine the
ch4aika [34]

Explanation:

Percentage ethylene by weight = 57%

Percentage propylene by weight = 43%

Suppose in 100 grams of polymer:

Mass of ethylene = 57 g

Mass of propylene = 43 g

Moles of ethylene = \frac{57 g}{28 g/mol}=2.036 mol

Moles of propylene = \frac{43g}{42g/mol}=1.024 mol

1 mole = N_A =6.022\times 10^{23} molecules/ atoms

Units of ethylene = 2.036 mol\times N_A

Units of propylene = 1.024 mol\times N_A

a) Fraction of ethylene units:

=\frac{2.036 mol\times N_A}{2.306 mol\times N_A+1.024 mol\times N_A}=\frac{509}{765}

b ) Fraction of propylene units:

=\frac{1.024mol\times N_A}{2.306 mol\times N_A+1.024 mol\times N_A}=\frac{256}{765}

Consider the unbalanced equation for the oxidation of aluminum.
SashulF [63]
In order to balance an equation, we apply the principle of conservation of mass, which states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed. Therefore, the mass of an element before and after a reaction remains constant. Here, the balanced equation becomes:
4Al + 3O₂ → 2Al₂O₃

The coefficients are 4, 3 and 2.

Calculate the number of moles of magnesium, chlorine, and oxygen atoms in 3.50 moles of magnesium
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

n_{Mg}=3.50molMg\\\\ n_{Cl}=7.00molCl\\\\n_O=28.0molO

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information it turns out possible for us to realize that one mole of the given compound, Mg(ClO₄)₂, has one mole of Mg, two moles of Cl and eight moles of O; thus, we proceed as follows:

n_{Mg}=3.50molMg(ClO_4)_2*\frac{1molMg}{1molMg(ClO_4)_2}=3.50molMg\\\\ n_{Cl}=3.50molMg(ClO_4)_2*\frac{2molCl}{1molMg(ClO_4)_2}=7.00molCl\\\\n_O=3.50molMg(ClO_4)_2*\frac{8molO}{1molMg(ClO_4)_2}=28.0molO

Best regards!
