Answer:

4.5 × 10^14 Hz

Explanation:

According to this question, chlorophyll pigment strongly absorbs light with a wavelength of 662nm. To calculate the frequency of this light, the following formula is used:

λ = v/f

Where;

λ = wavelength (m)

v = speed of light (3×10^8m/s)

f = frequency of light (Hz)

Since the λ = 662nm = 662 × 10^-9m,

f = v/λ

f = 3 × 10^8/662 × 10^-9

f = 0.004531 × 10^(8+9)

f = 0.0045 × 10^17

f = 4.5 × 10^14 Hz

Complete this equation for the dissociation of the electrolyte NaCl(aq). Omit water from the equation because it is understood t
ella [17]

1. Answer;

Equation;

-NaCl(aq) → Na{+}(aq) + Cl{-}(aq)

Explanation;

-The polar property of water allows ionic compounds such as sodium chloride to dissolve in water. (sodium chloride is an ionic compound).

-Sodium chloride dissociates in water into sodium ions and chloride ions as shown by the equation. Water molecules surrounds the negatively charged chloride ions and positive sodium ions and pulls them away into solution.

2. Answer;

Equation;

Fe(ClO4)3(aq) → Fe 3+(aq) + 3ClO4 - (aq)

Explanation;

Iron (iii) perchlorate (Fe(ClO4)3 dissociates in water into iron (iii) ion and perchlorate ion. Iron (iii) ion is positively charged while the perchlorate ion is negatively charged, they are pulled apart by the polar water molecules, a process called dissociation.

tankabanditka [31]
Changes of state are physical changes in matter. They are reversible changes that do not change matter's chemical makeup or chemical properties. For example, when fog changes to water vapor, it is still water and can change back to liquid water again.please mark brainliest if correct
