Answer:

d. ΔH° > 0, process is endothermic.

Explanation:

Cold packs contain ammonium nitrate (NH₄NO₃). When this salt dissolves in water, it decreases the temperature of the surroundings. This happens because the process is endothermic (absorbs heat from the surroundings). By convention, when a process is endothermic, the standard enthalpy carries a positive sign (ΔH° > 0).

Which activity is least likely to increase greenhouse gases in the atmosphere?
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:using fertilizers on crops

Explanation:carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is absorbed by plants.plants use it to produce their food. An increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide is caused by cutting down of forest and burning of fossil fuels.this increase in the emissions of carbon dioxide is harmful to the earth. Gases like chlorofluorocarbons ,carbon dioxide etc can cause global warming. This gases causes the heat not to escape from the earth atmosphere,just as it is in a green house. When this happens heat is trapped in the earth it causes global warming. These gases are released by burning of fuel, CFCs from old refrigerators and air conditioner.

Increase in the heat in the earth can cause melting of ice in the polar region.this can lead to a raise in sea level and flooding.

A pharmaceutical company wants to test the efficiency of its new drug production techniques so they run 3 shifts of production f
spayn [35]

The percentage yield of the  new production technique is 82.8%

<h3>What is the percentage yield?</h3>

Production is the procedure by which finished products are obtained form the raw materials. The production process involves the passing of raw materials through a certain procedure that involves the use of certain machines and equipment to give us the required products.

We are told in the question that there are three shifts;

Shift 1 produces 4562 grams

Shift 2 produces 5783 grams

Shift 3 produces 5247 grams

Average production from the three shifts = 4562 grams + 5783 grams +  5247 grams/3 = 5197 grams

The theoretical average yield is =  7000 grams + 7000 grams + 7000 grams/3 = 7000 grams

Now the percentage yield = actual yield/ theoretical yield * 100/1

percentage yield = 5197 grams/7000 grams * 100/1

percentage yield = 82.8%

Green light has a wavelength of 550nm. What is the frequency of a photon of green light?
Vikki [24]

Answer:- Frequency is 5.4*10^1^4Hz .

Solution:- frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other and the equation used is:

\nu =\frac{c}{\lambda }

where, \nu is frequency, c is speed of light and \lambda is the wavelength.

Speed of light is 3.0*10^8m/s .

We need to convert the wavelength from nm to m.

( 1nm=10^-^9m )

550nm(\frac{10^-^9m}{1nm})

= 5.5*10^-^7m

Now, let's plug in the values in the equation to calculate the frequency:

\nu =\frac{3.0*10^8m.s^-^1}{5.5*10^-^7m}

= 5.4*10^1^4s^-^1 or 5.4*10^1^4Hz

since, 1s^-^1=1Hz

So, the frequency of the green light photon is 5.4*10^1^4Hz .
