Sound waves are transverse mechanical waves. True False

Chemistry
1 answer:
allochka39001 [22]3 years ago
7 0

False

Explanation:

Sound waves are longitudinal mechanical waves.

Mechanical waves are waves that requires a medium to propagate them.

  • A transverse wave is a wave that is propagated perpendicularly to its source.
  • An example is electromagnetic radiation.
  • A longitudinal wave is a wave that is directed parallel to their source.
  • Sound wave is a longitudinal wave.
  • It has series of rarefaction and compression along its travel path.
  • Rarefaction are areas of sparse particles.
  • Compression are areas with dense particles.

Identify each of the following compounds as: (a) a nonelectrolyte: lactose (c12h22o11) potassium chloride (kcl) lactic acid (hc3
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Nonelectrolytes are compounds that do not tend to get ionize in all solution. As a result, solutions which contains nonelectrolytes will not conduct electricity.

Ionic compounds dissolve in water and break into the constituent ions through the process called ionization. Now These electrolyte solutions can either be acids, or bases, or salts.

If  the process of ionization produces a large no. of ions in the solution, it is a strong electrolyte. On the other hand, if it produces only a few ions, the solution is a weak electrolyte,

Potassium chloride (KCL) is a strong electrolyte,

Lactic acid (HC3H503) is a weak electrolyte,

Whereas, Ethanol (C3H7OH) is a non electrolyte,

Dimethylamine (CH3)2NH is a weak electrolyte,

Sodium hydroxide(NaOH) is a strong electrolyte.

Why do northern lights appear in different colors? Because charged particles of solar wind ignite different gases in Earth's atm
Fofino [41]

Answer:

It is A. Because charged particles of solar wind ignite different gases in Earth's atmosphere.

Explanation:

Since the solar wind from the sun is too radioactive for humans (they would die), once the charged particles hit the earth's atmosphere it shows its color. Every element has its own color and once it hits the atmosphere it really starts to show.

I am finding the formula of a compound that has 60% Carbon, 32% Oxygen, and 8% Hydrogen. Although, when it comes to actually cre
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

To determine the molecular formula of the compound, the empirical formula must be determined first. To determine the empirical formula, the percentage of each constituent is divided by its molar mass. This is shown below

Carbon = 60/12 = 5

Oxygen = 32/16 = 2

Hydrogen = 8/1 = 8

The next step is to divide each ratio by the smallest value. The smallest value is 2. It becomes

Carbon = 5/2 = 2.5

It is approximated to 3

Oxygen = 2/2 = 1

Hydrogen = 8/2 = 4

Therefore, the empirical formula is

C3H4O

From the given relative molecular mass of the compound, the molecular formula can be determined

How many oxygen (O) atoms are involved in this chemical reaction?<br><br> 2Fe(OH)3 — Fe2O3 + 3H20
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

6 oxygen atoms

Explanation:

From the equation,

2Fe(OH)₃ → Fe₂O₃ + 3H₂O

From the reactant (left hand side) we have 2 moles of Fe(OH)₃ having (2 * 3 = 6) atoms of oxygen and decomposed to give Fe₂O₃ which contains 3 atoms of oxygen and 3 moles of water that also contains 3 atoms of oxygen.

Since the number of oxygen participating in the reaction is independent on the product (not a reversible reaction) then the total number of oxygen atoms participating in the reaction is 6
