ANSWER:

Potential energy due to the position of an object above Earth's surface is called gravitational  potential energy.

EXPLANATION:

Gravitational energy is the potential energy compared with gravitational force, as work is  needed to further things against Earth’s gravity. The potential energy due to high positions is  called gravitational potential energy, and is evidenced by water in an elevated storage or kept  behind a dam. If an article falls from one point to different point inside a gravitational field, the  force of gravitation will do actual work on the object, and the gravitational potential energy will  decrease by the same amount.

The molecules CH4 and CH3Cl both have tetrahedral shapes. Why is CH4 nonpolar whereas CH3Cl is polar?
ruslelena [56]
Because in CH4 the valence electrons of Carbon are being pulled away from the nucleus with the same force (since all hydrogen has the same electronegativity).So charges are equally distributed throughout the atom and the atom is non-polar. In CH3Cl Cl has a different electronegativity than H, so charges aren't equally distributed and therefore the molecule is polar.

How do you know the ph level of 10^-8
sergiy2304 [10]

pH=6.98

Explanation:

This is a very interesting question because it tests your understanding of what it means to have a dynamic equilibrium going on in solution.

As you know, pure water undergoes self-ionization to form hydronium ions, H3O+, and hydroxide anions, OH−.

2H2O(l]⇌H3O+(aq]+OH−(aq]→ very important!

At room temperature, the value of water's ionization constant, KW, is equal to 10−14. This means that you have

KW=[H3O+]⋅[OH−]=10−14

Since the concentrations of hydronium and hydroxide ions are equal for pure water, you will have

[H3O+]=√10−14=10−7M

The pH of pure water will thus be

pH=−log([H3O+])

pH=−log(10−7)=7

Now, let's assume that you're working with a 1.0-L solution of pure water and you add some 10

Natalija [7]

Answer:

The energy of electromagnetic radiation increases as its frequency increases.

The frequency and wavelength of electromagnetic radiation are inversely proportional.

Explanation:

According to Max Plank's equation, the energy of electromagnetic radiation is given by E=hf where h= Plank's constant and f= frequency of the electromagnetic radiation. This means that the energy and frequency of electromagnetic radiation and its energy are related by a direct proportion. As frequency of the electromagnetic radiation increases, the energy of the radiation increases also.

However, frequency and wavelength of electromagnetic radiation are inversely related. The frequency decreases with increasing wavelength of electromagnetic radiation.
