Why can electromagnetic radiation travel through empty space?

Chemistry

statuscvo [17]3 years ago

Answer:

hello

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves that can travel through matter or through empty space. ... However, when light travels in matter, it interacts with the atoms and molecules in the material and slows down. As a result, light travels fastest in empty space, and travels slowest in solids.

that's the summary

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation is composed of electric and magnetic fields, altho most waves travle through mediums such as air or water witch take up space, lights medium takes up no space (electric and magnetic fields take up no space). saying that a magnetic field took up space would be like saying gravity took up space. When electric and magnetic fields interact in such a way they can start to oscillate and interact with each other to form light.

How is it possible for there to be more than one kind of atom of the same element?
tiny-mole [99]

They are called isotopes.

Isotopes have the same number of electrons and protons in their unionized state. They differ in the number of neutrons. The first and simplest example is hydrogen.


The most common hydrogen has

1 proton

1 electron and

0 neutrons


It has 2 cousins

1 proton

1 electron

1 neutron

And

1 proton

1 electron

2 neutrons.


Most elements have some differences in the number of neutrons present in their nuclei. Cesium and Xenon have the most number of isotopes. Each has 36. You wonder how the atoms are held together.

What aspects are not accounted for in the ideal gas law?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

The aspects not accounted for in the ideal gas law are the force of attraction of the gas molecules on each other and the volume of the gas molecules.

  • In the ideal gas law, it it assumed that the molecules of the gas are so far away from each other and thus they do not exert a significant force of attraction on each other.
  • Also, the volume of each molecule of gas is <u>neglected</u> and assumed negligible and thus does not account for the <u>overall volume of the gas.</u>

<u />

So, the aspects not accounted for in the ideal gas law are the force of attraction of the gas molecules on each other and the volume of the gas molecules.
