When a wave bounces off a barrier and changes direction that is called reflection. Refraction, however occurs when a wave changed mediums, so if a wave were to go from moving in air to moving in water, the wave would change a direction that is based upon the index of refraction of that given medium.

So, if the answer is classifying a medium as a "boundary" then yes, they both change direction, however, a physical boundary only causes a change in direction in reflection.

densk [106]

Answer:

In Step 5, you will calculate H+/OH– ratios for more extreme pH solutions. Find the concentration of H+ ions to OH– ions listed in Table B of your Student Guide for a solution at a pH = 2. Then divide the H+ concentration by the OH– concentration. Record these concentrations and ratio in Table C.

What is the concentration of H+ ions at a pH = 2?

0.01   mol/L  

What is the concentration of OH– ions at a pH = 2?

0.000000000001   mol/L  

What is the ratio of H+ ions to OH– ions at a pH = 2?

10,000,000,000 : 1

How much work does it take to move a 50 μC charge<br> against a 12 V potential difference?
lukranit [14]
<span>work =V*Q =12*50*10^-6

The total work done will be equal to 

work = V.Q

which means 

w= 12 . 50.10^-6
Hence,
w= 0.0006 J</span>
