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.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

57.2 g

Explanation:

First we <u>convert 66.4 grams of Ba(ClO₄)₂·3H₂O into moles</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • Molar mass of Ba(ClO₄)₂·3H₂O = Molar mass of Ba(ClO₄)₂ + (Molar Mass of H₂O)*3
  • Molar mass of Ba(ClO₄)₂·3H₂O = 390.23 g/mol
  • 66.4 g ÷ 390.23 g/mol = 0.170 mol Ba(ClO₄)₂·3H₂O

0.170 moles of Ba(ClO₄)₂·3H₂O would produce 0.170 moles of 0.170 moles of Ba(ClO₄)₂. Meaning we now <u>convert 0.170 moles of Ba(ClO₄)₂ into grams,</u> using the molar mass of Ba(ClO₄)₂:

  • 0.170 mol * 336.23 g/mol = 57.2 g
