Answer:

A. Optical fibers transmit light signals in high-speed communications.  

Explanation:

You didn't include the image, but it probably showed light bouncing off the sides as in the diagram below.

It demonstrates how optical fibers transmit light signals in high-speed communications.

B is wrong. Satellites communicate by radio waves.

C is wrong. Solar cells convert light energy to  

D is wrong. Power plants transmit electrical energy to homes through copper wires.

kupik [55]

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The stream that flows during or after the rainfall is called an ephemeral stream. This stream occurs in areas where there is less rainfall or deficiency of moisture.

The stream that flows only in flat lands is called as river.

Mechanical weathering results in the breaking of rocks causes ice wedging.

Chemical weathering results in the change in molecular structure of rocks and soil.

Thus, it can be concluded that option (a) is the correct answer.

How many moles are present in 54.8 mL of mercury if the density of mercury is 13.6 g/mL?​
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

3.72 mol Hg

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry - Atomic Structure</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Using Dimensional Analysis
  • Density = Mass over Volume

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

D = 13.6 g/mL

54.8 mL Hg

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Molar Mass of Hg - 200.59 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Find</u>

13.6 g/mL = x g / 54.8 mL

x = 745.28 g Hg

<u>Step 4: Convert</u>

<u />745.28 \ g \ Hg(\frac{1 \ mol \ Hg}{200.59 \ g \ Hg} ) = 3.71544 mol Hg

<u>Step 5: Check</u>

<em>We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.</em>

3.71544 mol Hg ≈ 3.72 mol Hg

Sedaia [141]
I think the best answer is the last option. A scatter plot is the appropriate type of graph for the student to use to show the percent samples per group. This plot is somewhat similar to line graphs. However, they are use for  a specific purpose which is to show the relationship between two parameters. In this case, the correlation between pH and the percent of samples.
