Explain why we see different colors (include reflection and absorption in your response)

Chemistry
1 answer:
Monica [59]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

I honestly love this subject because its so intersting

Explanation:

Light receptors within the eye transmit messages to the brain, which produces the familiar sensations of color. Newton observed that color is not inherent in objects. Rather, the surface of an object reflects some colors and absorbs all the others. We perceive only the reflected colors.

Example:

When you look at a Goldfish, you see the color orange. But that is not the case. What is happening is the goldfish's scales are absorbing all the colors exept orange, the color orange is bouncing off the scales and into our eyes, and thats what we see. Black is regecting all colors and white is absorbing it all.

Which term represents the strength of the attraction an atom has for electrons in a chemical bond?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Electronegativity (χ) is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself. Atoms with higher electronegativity attracts more electrons towards it, electrons are closer to that atom.

How much ice (in grams) would have to melt to lower the temperature of 353 mL of water from 26 ∘C to 6 ∘C? (Assume the density o
Rashid [163]

Answer:

The mass of ice required to melt to lower the temperature of 353 mL of water from 26 ⁰C to 6 ⁰C is 85.4197 kg

Explanation:

Heat gain by ice = Heat lost by water

Thus,  

Heat of fusion + m_{ice}\times C_{ice}\times (T_f-T_i)=-m_{water}\times C_{water}\times (T_f-T_i)

Where, negative sign signifies heat loss

Or,  

Heat of fusion + m_{ice}\times C_{ice}\times (T_f-T_i)=m_{water}\times C_{water}\times (T_i-T_f)

Heat of fusion = 334 J/g

Heat of fusion of ice with mass x = 334x J/g

For ice:

Mass = x g

Initial temperature = 0 °C

Final temperature = 6 °C

Specific heat of ice = 1.996 J/g°C

For water:

Volume = 353 mL

Density (\rho)=\frac{Mass(m)}{Volume(V)}

Density of water = 1.0 g/mL

So, mass of water = 353 g

Initial temperature = 26 °C

Final temperature = 6 °C

Specific heat of water = 4.186 J/g°C

So,  

334x+x\times 1.996\times (6-0)=353\times 4.186\times (26-6)

334x+x\times 11.976=29553.16

345.976x = 29553.16

x = 85.4197 kg

Thus,  

<u>The mass of ice required to melt to lower the temperature of 353 mL of water from 26 ⁰C to 6 ⁰C is 85.4197 kg</u>

Compare Boyle's law, Charles's law, and Avogadro's law. a. What remains constant in each law? b. What are the variables in each
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

a)

In Boyle's Law, the variable that remains constant is the absolute temperature of the gas.

In Charle's Law, the variable that remains constant is the pressure of the gas.

In Avogadro's Law, the variables that remain constant are pressure and temperature of the gas.

b)

In Boyle's Law, the variables involved are pressure and volume: the law states that for a fixed mass of ideal gas at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume:

p\propto \frac{1}{V}

where p is the pressure of the gas and V the volume.

In Charle's Law, the variables involved are volume and temperature: the law states that for a  fixed mass of ideal gas at constant pressure, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature:

V\propto T

where V is the volume of the gas and T the temperature.

In Avogadro's Law, the variables involved are the volume and the number of moles: the law states that for an ideal gas kept at constant pressure and temperature, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the number of moles:

V\propto n

Where V is the volume of the gas and n the number of moles.

c)

See the graphs of the three Laws in attachment:

- First graph: Boyle's Law, which shows that the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume

- Second Graph: Charle's Law, which shows that the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature

- Third graph: Avogadro's Law, which shows that the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of the gas

d)

Here we want to re-write the three laws by making V the subject.

For Boyle's law, we get:

V\propto \frac{1}{p}

For Charle's Law, we get:

V\propto T

For Avogadro's Law, we get:

V\propto n

Therefore, we see that the two laws that show a direct proportionality are Charle's Law and Avogadro's Law, while Boyle's Law shows an inverse proportionality between the two variables.

If 110g of copper sulphate is present in 550g of solution calculate the concentration of solution
Bingel [31]

Answer:

20%

Explanation:

mass by mass percentage of a solution =(mass of solute)/(mass of solution)

mass of solute=550g

therefore 110×100/550=20%

hope u will understand .:") credit to the owner
