Answer:

How do scientists determine the chemical compositions of the planets and stars? Each element absorbs light at specific wavelengths unique to that atom. When astronomers look at an object's spectrum, they can determine its composition based on these wavelengths. ... That fingerprint often appears as the absorption of light.

Given that naphthalene is insoluble in water and sublimes easily upon heating, describe two different methods by which you could
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
<span>Based on solubilities you can separate naphthalene and NaCl by adding the mixture to a volume of water. NaCl is highly soluble in water, so it will dissolve completely, while the insoluble naphthalen will remain solid. Next your filter the solution, washing the solid with pure water to eliminate all the NaCl from it. The NaCl will remain is solution, and you can obtain it by evaporating the water. The other method to separate naphthalene and NaCl is based on sublimation property of naphthalene: you can permit that naphthalene sublimes freely or use vacuum to accelerate the process. You use a closed vessel to catch all the gas, while the NaCl will remain solid.</span>
