Answer:
Scientists have been debating over light being a wave or particle since its recognition.
Sir Issac Newton discovered that light had frequency and other properties. Newton described light to be a particle because it created shadows which were sharp and very clear.
Francesco Maria Grimaldi, claimed that light was a wave. This was because this scientist observed the diffraction of light and hence, claimed light to be a type of wave.
The speed of light is 299 792 458 m / s. Nothing can travel faster than light.
<u>Answer:</u>
For 2: The correct answer is grams of solute per 100 grams of solvent.
For 3: The correct answer is supersaturated.
For 4: the correct answer is the solubility decreases.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Solubility is defined as the property which refers to the ability of the solute that can be dissolved in a solvent. It is defined as the number of grams of solute per 100 grams of solvent.
Unsaturated solution is defined as the solution in which amount of solute that is dissolved in the solvent is less.
Saturated solution is defined as the solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in the given amount of solvent.
Emulsion is defined as the dispersion of one liquid in another liquid in which it is not soluble.
Supersaturated solution is defined as the solution in which solvent contains more amount of solute than the required amount. These solutions help in the process of crystallization.
When a crystal is added to a <u>supersaturated solution</u>, more and more particles come out of the solution and this process is known as crystallization.
According to the Henry's Law
The solubility of the gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas.
With increase in the partial pressure, the solubility of the gas in liquid also increases and vice-versa.
Hence, the correct answer is the solubility decreases.
Answer:
Solid Osmium transition metal reacts with Oxygen gas to produce solid Osmium tetroxide.
Os(s) + 2O₂(g) -> OsO₄(s)
Explanation:
Osmium tetroxide is another way of writing Osmium (VIII) oxide.
Leaving powdered osmium exposed to air in a room will slowly create osmium tetroxide at room temperature.
Similarly, osmium tetroxide vapor will readily be released from a liquid solution at room temperature.
Answer:
Reversible reactions exhibit the same reaction rate for forward and reverse reactions at equilibrium.
Reversible reactions exhibit constant concentrations of reactants and products at equilibrium
Explanation:
A reversible reaction is a reaction that can proceed in both forward and backward direction.
Equilibrium is attained in a chemical system when there is no observable change in the properties of the system.
At equilibrium, a reversible reaction is occurring in at same rate. That is, the forward and backward reaction is occurring at the same rate. As the rate of the forward and backward reaction remains the same, the concentrations of the reactants and products will also be the same in order for the equilibrium to be maintained.
The postmortem cooling or algor mortis gets fixed by 8- 10 hours after death. The temperature of the body after death can be used to determine the time since death.
