White light is what the eye sees when wavelengths of all colours reach the eye.
It is a combination of Red, Blue and Green wavelengths of light, that is perceived as white.

Calcium Carbide (CaC₂) is an unusual substance that contains a carbon anion (C₂²⁻). The reaction with water involves several steps that occur in rapid succession. CaC2 is a salt (notice that its name is similar to sodium chloride). When a salt dissolves in water, ions leave the crystal lattice and enter the aqueous (aq) solution. Write the relevant balanced chemical equation for the dissolution of CaC₂, in water.
Answer:
CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + C₂H₂(aq)
Explanation:
When a salt dissolves in water, it dissociates in its ions. In the Calcium Carbide, the cation is Ca⁺² and the anion is C₂²⁻, so the reaction is:
CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + C₂H₂(aq)
The base Ca(OH)₂ is soluble, so it will dissociate at Ca⁺ and OH⁻, but the C₂H₂ is stable and doesn't dissociate in the solution.
he total number of each of the atoms on the left and the right are the same thus the reaction equation is balanced.
<h3>What is the law of conservation of mass?</h3>
The law of conservation of mass states that, mass can neither be created nor destroyed. In view of the law of conservation of mass, the total mass of the reactants on the left-hand side must be the same as the total mass of products at the right hand side.
Thus is the total mass of the reactants and the products are not the same, it then follows that the reaction does not demonstrate the law of conservation of mass. In this case, the total number of each of the atoms on the left and the right are the same thus the reaction equation is balanced.

Hello!
To find the amount of energy need to raise the temperature of 125 grams of water from 25.0° C to 35.0° C, we will need to use the formula: q = mcΔt.
In this formula, q is the heat absorbed, m is the mass, c is the specific heat, and Δt is the change in temperature, which is found by final temperature minus the initial temperature.
Firstly, we can find the change in temperature. We are given the initial temperature, which is 25.0° C and the final temperature, which is 35.0° C. It is found by subtract the final temperature from the initial temperature.
35.0° C - 25.0° C = 10.0° C
We are also given the specific heat and the grams of water. With that, we can substitute the given values into the equation and multiply.
q = 125 g × 4.184 J/g °C × 10.0° C
q = 523 J/°C × 10.0° C
q = 5230 J
Therefore, it will take 5230 joules (J) to raise the temperature of the water.
