4. What are the characteristics of the particles of matter?

Chemistry

mojhsa [17]3 years ago

Not sure how in depth or what level of particles but I will go as deep as I know. The matter that makes up the world is comprised of 12 particles which are known as fermions. There are 12 fermions which are made up of 6 quarks (up, charm, top, Down, Strange, Bottom) 3 electrons (electron, muon, tau) and three neutrinos (e, muon, tau). Technically, only the up quark, down quark, electron, and electron neutrino are necessary to create all known matter since others would simply be very unstable and decay into those particles. The other type of particles are known as Bosons. These particles transmit forces and all sorts of different interactions. I have included a photo from online which describes the main characteristics of each elementary particle.

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The question is incomplete. The response options are as follows:

I. C-O or C=O

II. C-C

III. C-H

IV. O-H

The answer is: IV>III>I>II

Explanation:

V) O-H is a hydrogen bridge. The hydrogen bridge is characterized by being similar to dipole-dipole bonds.

III) C-H is an ionic bond. The ionic bond occurs when they fuse together due to electron transfer.

I) C=O is a covalent bond. The covalent bond happens when two atoms bond together to create a molecule, sharing its electrons that are in its most superficial layer,

II) C-C is covalent bond.

What is the energy of light with a wavelength of 468 nm? (The speed of light
marshall27 [118]

The answer for the problem is explained below.

The option for the answer is "D".

<u><em>Therefore the energy of the light is  4.25 × 10^-19 J</em></u>

Explanation:

Given:

wavelength (λ) = 468 nm = 468×10^-9 m

speed of light (c) = 3.00 x 10^8m/s

Planck's constant is 6.626 x 10^-34J·s

To solve:

energy of light (E)

We know,

E =(h×c) ÷ λ

E = ( 6.626 x 10^-34 ×  3.00 x 10^8) ÷ 468×10^-9

E = 4.25 × 10^-19 J

<u><em>Therefore the energy of the light is  4.25 × 10^-19 J</em></u>

Write equations to show whether the solubility of either of the following is affected by pH: (b) Hg₂(CN)₂.
nata0808 [166]

<u> Increasing pH will increase the solubility of the Hg2(CN)2 by shifting </u><u>equilibrium </u><u>to right side.</u>

What is the meaning of OH in chemistry?

The chemical group, ion, or radical OH that consists of one atom of hydrogen and one of oxygen and is neutral or negatively charged.

Hg2(CN)2 + 2OH-  ----> 2HgO(s) + 2HCN

adding OH- to the mercury(l) cyanide  will cause the formation of the solid HgO.

therefore increasing pH will increase the solubility of the Hg2(CN)2 by shifting equilibrium to right side.

A car with a mass of 1,000 kg is moving at a speed of 20 m/s. What is the car's kinetic energy?
shtirl [24]

The answer would be 200000 J. the equation for kinetic energy is 1/2 mass times velocity squared. 1/2 of 1,000 is 500. and 20*20 is 400. So, multiply 400 by 500, and that gives you your answer,
