The most dramatic astronomical development of the century thus far is the detection of gravitational waves from merging black holes at a distance of 400 Mpc, during the first science run of the advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory.
The telescope was also very important. Galileo Galilei was the first person to use a telescope to look at celestial bodies (though he did not invent the telescope) and discovered the four brightest moons of Jupiter, proving that there are things in the Solar System that don't revolve around the Sun.
Physical cosmology is the branch of physics and astrophysics that deals with the study of the physical origins and evolution of the Universe. It also includes the study of the nature of the Universe on a large scale. In its earliest form, it was what is now known as "celestial mechanics", the study of the heavens.
Hope this helps you :)
Answer:
19.12 L
Explanation:
At STP(i.e. Standard temperature and pressure).
The volume occupied by one mole of gas = 22.4 L
The pressure = 1 atm
The temperature = 273 K
Thus, since 1 mole of gas = 22.4 L;
Then 0.853 moles of N2 gas will occupy:
= (0.853 moles of N2 gas × 22.4 L)/ 1 mole of N2 gas
= 19.12 L
Superscript o subscript negative 1 e.
Explanation:
The nuclear reactions is of 2 types, one is nuclear fusion and the other one is nuclear fission.
Nuclear fusion is nothing but the combining of 2 nuclei with an emission of energy along with an electron, proton or beta particle.
Nuclear fission is the break down of a nucleus into 2 or more nuclei along with an electron, proton or beta particle.
And the reaction is,
₅₆B¹²⁴ ₅₅C¹²⁴ + ₋₁e⁰
So the blank was filled by means of a beta particle.

Explanation:
The drug thalidomide with molecular formula C13H10N2O4 was widely prescribed by doctors for morning sickness in pregnant women in the 1960s.
The drug was sold as a racemic mixture (+)(R)-thalidomide and (-)(S)-thalidomide.
Unfortunately, only the (+)(R)-thalidomide exhibited the required effect while (-)(S)-thalidomide is a teratogen.
This goes a long way to underscore the importance of separation of enantiomers in drug production.
Therefore, all the teratogenic effects observed when using the drug thalidomide was actually as a result of the presence of (-)(S)-thalidomide, the unwanted enantiomer.
For every, 3 Br- ions, 1 Al3+ ion reacts to form AlBr3.
Convert 16.2g of aluminum to moles:
16.2g Al / 27.0g per mol = 0.60 mols.
Based on the above ratio, 0.60 mols of Al will react with 1.8 mols of Br.
Convert 1.8 mols of Br to its mass:
1.8 mols Br × 79.9g per mol = 143.82g of Br.
