Answer:

2 Hertz

Explanation:

The frequency would be 2 Hertz.

The frequency of a wave is defined as the rate at which the particles of a medium vibrates when the wave is passed through it while the period of a wave is the time it takes the particles to make a complete cycle of vibration.

The frequency of a wave is inversely related to its period and is defined by the following equation:

f = 1/t, where f is the frequency (in hertz) and t is the period (in seconds).

Hence, if the period of a ripple is 1/2 or 0.5 seconds, the frequency becomes;

f = 1/0.5 = 2 Hertz

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Option A = atomic masses

Explanation:

In compound molecular mass is the sum of the individual atomic masses of the atoms.

For example

Compound NaCl.

atomic weight of sodium = 23 g/mol

atomic weight of chlorine = 35.5 g/mol

Molar mass of NaCl = 23+ 35.5 = 58.5 g/mol

Every atom consist of nucleus or a positive center. The protons and neutrons are present with in the nucleus while electrons are present out side the nucleus. All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. The number of protons or number of electrons are the atomic number of an atom while the number of protons and number of neutrons are the mass number of an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of protons and electrons. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other.

NH_{4}Cl and NaCl Balanced Equation Total Ionic Equation Net Ionic Equation

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Based on compounds given, NO reaction occurs

Explanation

The compounds should exchange ions to generate a driving force that pulls the reaction to completion. => Example ...

The Molecular Equation is ...

NH₄Cl(aq) + AgNO₃(aq) => NH₄NO₃(aq) + AgCl(s)

Silver chloride forms in this reaction as a solid precipitate because of its low solubility and is the 'Driving Force' of the reaction. Driving Force is a more stable compound than any on the reactant side and when formed leaves the reaction system as a solid ppt, liquid weak electrolyte (i.e., weak acid or weak base) or a gas decomposition product of a weak electrolyte.

The Ionic Equation is ...

NH₄⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) + Ag⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq) => NH₄⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq) + AgCl(s)

This shows all ions from reaction plus the Driving Force of the reaction.

The Net Ionic Equation is ...

Ag⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) => AgCl(s)

The Net Ionic Equation shows only those ions undergoing reaction. The NH₄⁺ and NO₃⁻ ions are 'Spectator Ions' and do not react.

Attached is a reference sheet for determining the Driving Force of a Metathesis Double Replacement Reaction. Suggest reviewing acid-base theories and the products of decomposition type reactions.
