Answer:

D. In both, vibrations occur in a parallel direction to the direction of the wave.

Explanation:

It is not true that in both mechanical and electromagnetic waves, vibrations occur in parallel direction to the direction of the wave.

As with all waves, they are disturbances that transfers energy without moving the materials of the medium.

Electromagnetic waves have only one way of propagation which is a vibration in both parallel and longitudinal direction.
Mechanical waves can be propagated either in a parallel direction or longitudinal direction and not both.

A flashbulb of volume 1.70 mL contains O2(g) at a pressure of 2.30 atm and a temperature of 18.0°C. How many grams of O2(g)

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

0.0001637 mol

Explanation:

PV = nRT

Very important formula in chem

2.3 atm * 0.0017 L = n * 0.082057 * 291 K

= 0.0001637 mol O2

This concept is very important in chem, practice it.

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Nickel and carbon monoxide react to form nickel carbonyl, like this:

$Ni(s)+4CO(g)\rightarrow Ni(CO)_4(g)$

At a certain temperature, a chemist finds that a 2.6 L reaction vessel containing a mixture of nickel, carbon monoxide, and nickel carbonyl at equilibrium has the following composition:

Compound Amount

Ni 12.7 g

CO 1.98 g

$Ni(CO)_4$ 0.597 g
