Answer:

a. Interference patterns are observed when a wave passes through a barrier with two slits

Explanation:

Interference is a situation where two waves superimpose to form a new wave of a different amplitude. This amplitude can be greater, same or lower.

the diagram attached below shows the movement of a wave through a barrier with two slits.

you can notice the portions of the wave that overlap. This overlapping of waves is the interference.

Thus, option A is correct.

The other options however,  are not correct. as shown below:

Option B is wrong as waves exhibit diffraction <em>(it is diffraction of the light wave that produces the rainbows we see in the sky)</em>

Option C is wrong as waves do not travel straight through slits always.

Option D is wrong as waves can also interfere constructively and destructively.

a chemistry teacher adds 50.0 ml of 1.50 m h2so4 solution to 200 ml of water. What is the concentration of the final solution?
nevsk [136]

Answer:0.300M

Explanation:1) Data:

a) Initial solution

M = 1.50M

V = 50.0 ml = 0.050 l

b) Solvent added = 200 ml = 0.200 l

2) Formula:

Molarity: M = moles of solute / volume of solution is liters

3) Solution:

a) initial solution:

Clearing moles from the molarity formula: moles = M × V

moles of H₂SO₄ = M × V = 1.5M × 0.050 l = 0.075 mol

b) final solution:

i) Volumen of solution = 0.050 l + 0.200l = 0.250l

ii) M = 0.075 mol / 0.250 l = 0.300M ← answeer

A substance with a pH of 10 is how much more basic than a substance with a pH of 2?
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The same holds true for pH values above 7, each of which is ten times more alkaline (another way to say basic) than the next lower whole value. For example, pH 10 is ten times more alkaline than pH 9 and 100 times (10 times 10) more alkaline than pH 8.

A sample of matter was given the following description: The sample of the pure substance is blue in color with an octahedral sha
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

A crystalline solid

Explanation:

Most solids form with a regular arrangement of their particles because the overall attractive interactions between particles are maximized, and the total intermolecular energy is minimized, when the particles pack in the most efficient manner. The regular arrangement at an atomic level is often reflected at a macroscopic level.  Liquids dont use to have this kind of arrangements or shapes.
