Answer:

Uses of various electromagnetic waves depend on their relative energy.

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum is the term used by scientists to describe the entire range of light that exists from radio waves to gamma rays. Electromagnetic waves is a wave of alternating electric and magnetic fields. The electromagnetic spectrum is a continuum of all electromagnetic waves arranged according to frequency and wavelength. The sun, earth, and other bodies radiate electromagnetic energy of varying wavelengths. Electromagnetic energy passes through space at the speed of light in the form of sinusoidal waves. The spectrum of waves is divided into sections based on wavelength. The shortest waves are gamma rays, which have wavelengths of 10^-6 microns or less. The longest waves are radio waves, which have wavelengths of many kilometers.

The application of various electromagnetic waves in science and technology depends on the energy of the wave. Electromagnetic waves that possess very high amount of energy are used in medical diagnosis, treatment of tumors, searching of baggage and detection of flaws in metal casting. Examples of such electromagnetic waves include gamma rays and xrays.

Some part of the electromagnetic spectrum possess energy enough to excite chemical bonds and produce spectra characteristic of certain functional groups in molecules. The ultraviolet and infrared rays fall into this category.

Some portion of the spectrum possesses very low energy and long wavelength and are mostly used for communication, mild medical diagnosis and resonance imaging/spectroscopy. Radio waves fall into this category.

Please help on this one?
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

\text{C. } _{36}^{85}\text{Kr}

Explanation:

Your nuclear equation is  

_{35}^{85}\text{Br} \longrightarrow \, _{-1}^{0}\text{e} +\, _{x}^{y}\text{X}

The main point to remember in balancing nuclear equations is that

  • the sum of the superscripts and must be the same on each side of the equation.
  • the sum of the subscripts must be the same on each side of the equation.  

Then  

85 = 0 + y, so y = 85 - 0 = 0  

35 = -1 + x, so x = 35 + 1 = 36

The nucleus with atomic number 36 and atomic mass 85 is krypton-85.  

The nuclear equation becomes  

_{35}^{85}\text{Br} \longrightarrow \, _{-1}^{0}\text{e} + \, _{36}^{85}\text{Kr}

At 66.0 ∘c , what is the maximum value of the reaction quotient, q, needed to produce a non-negative e value for the reaction so
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

\boxed{5.5 \times 10^{-28}}

Explanation:

We must use the Nernst equation

E = E^{\circ} - \frac{RT}{zF}\ln Q

Step 1. Calculate E°

SO₄²⁻(aq) + 4H⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇌ SO₂(g) + 2H₂O(ℓ)

<u>2Br⁻⇌ Br₂(aq) + 2e⁻                                                                </u>

SO₄²⁻(aq) + 4H⁺(aq) + 2Br⁻(aq) ⇌ Br₂(aq) + SO₂(g) + 2H₂O(ℓ)

E° = 0.17 - 1.0873 = -0.92 V

Step 2. Calculate Q

E   =  0      V

E° = -0.92 V

R = 8.314 J·K⁻¹mol⁻¹

T = 66 °C

n = 2

F = 96 485 C/mol

Calculations:  

T = 66.0 + 273.15 = 339.15 K

0 = -0.92 - \dfrac{8.314 \times 339.15}{2 \times 96 485}\ln Q\\\\0.92 = -0.0146\times \ln Q \\\\\ln Q = -\dfrac{0.92}{0.0146} = -62.8\\\\Q = e^{-62.8} =\boxed{5.5 \times 10^{-28}}\\
