Two of the types of ultraviolet light, UVB and UVC, are both components of sunlight. Their wavelengths range from 280 to 320 nm

for UVB and from 100 to 280 nm for UVC. Compare the energy of microwaves, UVB, and UVC. Rank from greatest to least energy per photon. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.

Answer:

UVC > UVB > microwaves

Explanation:

Let's consider the following radiations with their ranges of wavelengths (λ).

  • Microwaves: 1 mm - 1 m
  • UVB: 280 nm - 320 nm
  • UVC: 100 nm - 280 nm

The energy of a photon (E) can be calculated using the Planck-Einstein's equation.

E = h . c . λ⁻¹

where,

h is the Planck's constant

c is the speed of light

As we can see, <u>the shorter the wavelength, the more energy the photon has</u>. The rank from greatest to least energy is UVC > UVB > microwaves.

If a 2.0 mL of 3.0 M HCl is used to make a 250 mL aqueous solution, what is the molarity of the dilute solution?
grin007 [14]

To solve this we use the equation, 

M1V1 = M2V2

where M1 is the concentration of the stock solution, V1 is the volume of the stock solution, M2 is the concentration of the new solution and V2 is its volume.

<span>3 M x 2 mL = M2 x 250 mL</span>

M2 = 0.024 M

A depression that receives more water then is we will exist as a stream for a long period of time
Anvisha [2.4K]

The answer is the lake.


A lake is a large expanse of terrestrial water, consisting of streams that are linked to the lake. Although some dimensions of some salt-water lakes are considered island seas; they are therefore distinct from the lagoons, and are larger and deeper than the ponds, while remaining a water body by definition.

why is it important for an art conservation scientist to study the properties of a painting before its repaired
12345 [234]

Answer : Art conservation requires minute study for the properties of a painting before it undergoes a repair work as it may help the scientist to predict the cause of damage and the areas will be identified and accordingly the damage repair work can be started off. To maintain the overall integrity of the painting intact it needs to be studied well. For repairs to be more discrete and less obstructive it has to be inspected well so that the authenticity of the painting is not lost.

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Reasonable Second step- N_{2}O(g)+H_{2}(g)\rightarrow N_{2}(g)+H_{2}O(g)

Explanation:

The given single step chemical reaction is as follows.

2H_{2}(g)+2NO \rightarrow 2H_{2}O(g)+N_{2}(g)

Suppose a two-step mechanism is proposed for this reaction,

The reaction occured in two steps they are as follows.

Step -1:H_{2}(g)+2NO \rightarrow N_{2}O(g)+H_{2}O(g)

Step-2:N_{2}O(g)+H_{2}(g)\rightarrow N_{2}(g)+H_{2}O(g)
