Answer:

Newton's Second Law of Motion says that acceleration (gaining speed) happens when a force acts on a mass (object). Riding your bicycle is a good example of this law of motion at work. Your bicycle is the mass. Your leg muscles pushing pushing on the pedals of your bicycle is the force.

Would you expect the wavelength of maximum absorbance for [Cu(NH3)4]2+ to be greater than or less than the wavelength of maximum

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Less

Explanation:

Since [Cu(NH3)4]2+ and [Cu(H2O)6]2+ are Octahedral Complexes the transitions between d-levels explain the majority of the absorbances seen in those chemical compounds. The difference in energy between d-levels is known as ΔOh (ligand-field splitting parameter) and it depends on several factors:

The nature of the ligand: A spectrochemical series is a list of ligands ordered on ligand strength. With a higher strength the ΔOh will be higher and thus it requires a higher energy light to make the transition.

The oxidation state of the metal: Higher oxidation states will strength the ΔOh because of the higher electrostatic attraction between the metal and the ligand

A partial spectrochemical series listing of ligands from small Δ to large Δ:

I− < Br− < S2− < Cl− < N3− < F−< NCO− < OH− < C2O42− < H2O < CH3CN < NH3 < NO2− < PPh3 < CN− < CO

Then NH3 makes the ΔOh higher and it requires a higher energy light to make the transition, which means a shorter wavelength.

Assume that a milliliter of water contains 20 drops. How long, in hours, will it take you to count the number of drops

garri49 [273]

Answer:

126.18 hr

Explanation:

Data given:

1 mL of water = 20 drops

count rate = 10 drops/s

time in hours for one gallon = ?

Solution:

First we calculate number of mL (milliliter) of water in gallon

As we know

1 gallon = 3785.4 mL

As,

1 galon consist of 3785.4 mL of water, so now we count number of drops that contain 3785.4 mL of water

As we Know 1 mL water contain 20 drops then 3785.4 mL of water contain how many drops:

Apply unity formula

1 mL water ≅ 20 drops

3785.4 mL water ≅ X drops

Do cross multiplication

X drops of water = 20 drops x 3785.4 mL / 1 mL

X drops of water = 75708 drops

So, we come to know that one gallon contain 75708 drops of water and we have to calculate the time in hour to count these drops

First we calculate time in seconds

As we Know 10 drops water count in one second then how many seconds it will take to count 75708 drops

Apply unity formula

1 second ≅ 10 drops

X second ≅ 75708 drops

Do cross multiplication

X second = 1 second x 75708 drops / 10 drops

X second = 7570.8 second

So it take 7570.8 second to count 1 gallon water drops

Now convert seconds to hours

As,

60 seconds = 1 hr

7570.8 second = 7570.8 / 60 = 126.18 hr

So it take 126.18 hr to count 1 gallon water drops.

Which of the following describe chemical properties

natita [175]

Chemical properties are those properties that become evident when the material experiences some sort of change. Although there are numerous chemical properties, some most basic ones are <span>reactivity with other chemicals, toxicity, flammability, heat of combustion, oxidation states, chemical stability<span>, types of chemical bonds that will form and others. Unlike physical characteristics that don't change the chemical when altered, changing chemical properties will affect the chemical.</span></span>
