c. The energy source of tsunami waves is much greater

Explanation:

The major difference between a tsunami waves and ripple waves is that the energy source of tsunami waves is much greater compared to ripple waves.

Tsunami waves carry more energy compared to just a disturbance resulting from a ripple caused by dropping of a stone.

  • A tsunami is a large water wave caused by the displacement of water usually by an earthquake.
  • An earthquake is a releases elastic waves suddenly within the earth crust.
  • Water bodies at the epicenter are disturbed sending huge volume of energetic water loads to the land.
  • A ripple is just a product of a stone dropped inside the water.

Tsunamis are more energetic compared to ripples in water.

Which compound has the same empirical and molecular formula ethyne ethene ethane methane?
Margaret [11]
Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound 
molecular formula is the actual ratio of components in a compound .
the molecular formula for the compounds given are as follows
ethyne  - C₂H₂
ethene - C₂H₄
ethane - C₂H₆
methane - CH₄
the actual ratios of the elements                 simplified ratio
                     C : H                                           C : H
ethyne            2:2                                             1:1
ethene            2:4                                             1:2
ethane            2:6                                             1:3
methane         1:4                                             1:4
the only compound where the actual ratio is equal to the simplified ratio is methane 
therefore in methane molecular formula CH₄ is the same as empirical formula CH₄

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Explanation:

A substance that produces an excess of hydroxide ion (-OH) in aqueous solution.

       This is an arrhenius Base

According to the arrhenius theory, a base is a substance that combines with water to produce excess hydroxide ions, OH⁻ in an aqeous solution. Examples are :

  • Sodium hydroxide NaOH
  • Potassium hydroxide KOH

A substance that produces an excess of hydrogen ion (H+) in aqueous solution

      This is an arrhenius Acid

An arrhenius acid is a substance that reacts with water to produce excess hydrogen ions in aqueous solutions.

Examples are;

  • Hydrochloric acid HCl
  • Hydroiodic acid HI
  • Hydrobromic acid HBr
