The energy of a wave will remain constant if the wavelength is doubled and the speed is also doubled.

Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Based on the dual nature of waves, Planck's equation states that the energy of the wave is directly proportional to the frequency of the wave. The Planck constant is termed as the proportionality constant.

So, E = hv

It is known that frequency is the ratio of speed of light to wavelength of wave, so the energy equation can be written as

E = \frac{hc}{lambda}

Thus, energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength of wave and directly proportional to the speed of wave. So in order to keep the energy constant, both the wavelength and the speed should be doubled as shown below.

Let  c = 2c and λ = 2λ, then the new energy will be

E'=\frac{hc}{lambda}

Since, c = 2c and lambda = 2 lambda, E' = 2hc/2lambda = E

So the wavelength is doubled and the speed is also doubled to keep the energy of the wave constant.

29. Ammonia is formed with one nitrogen and three hydrogen atoms. What is the electron configuration of nitrogen? How
masya89 [10]

Answer:

<u>One lone-Pair is present in Ammonia</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

The number of valence electron in N = 5

The number of Valence electron in H = 1

The formula of ammonia = NH3

Total valence electron in ammonia molecule = 5 +3(1) = 5+3 = 8

The lewis structure suggest that :

Nitrogen completes its octet by sharing the electron pair with 3 hydrogen atoms.

3 electron of Nitrogen are involved in sharing with Hydrogen

So,<u><em> remaining two electron are left non-bonded</em></u> . Hence they exist as lone- pair

So, there is only 1 lone pair in the ammonia molecule .

The shape of NH3 is bent according to VSEPR theory . This is so because the presence of 1 lone pair causes more repulsion and occupy more space.

Thus the lone pair is changing the shape of the ammonia molecule . It also increase the dipole moment of the molecule , which gives polarity to it.

A student heats the same amount of two different liquids over Bunsen burners. Each liquid is at room temperature when the studen
ZanzabumX [31]

If Liquid 1 has a higher specific heat than Liquid 2, then Liquid 1 will take longer to increase in temperature because the higher specific heat of a liquid needs more thermal energy for heating a liquid.

<h3>What is specific heat?</h3>

Specific heat of a substance refers to the quantity of heat that is required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one Celsius degree so we can conclude that  Liquid 1 will take longer to increase in temperature

What is the equilibrium equation for the dissociation of formic acid in water? hcooh (aq) + h2o (l) ⇌ h3o+ (aq) + hcoo- (aq)?
Pani-rosa [81]
Formic acid when in water would dissociate into ions just like any acids. It would dissociate into the hydrogen ion and the formate ion. The equilibrium dissociation equation would be written as:

<span>HCOOH (aq) + H2O (l) ⇌ H+ (aq) + HCOO- (aq)

Formic acid is a weak acid which means that when in aqueous solution it does not completely dissociate into its corresponding ions. Only a certain amount that would be dissociated so in the solution there will be HCOOH, HCOO- and H+ molecules. It is also known as Methanoic acid and an important substance for the synthesis of a number of substances. It is naturally occurring in ants.</span>
