What is the electromagnetic spectrum?
The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of frequencies (the spectrum) of electromagnetic radiation and their respective wavelengths and photon energies. The electromagnetic spectrum covers electromagnetic waves with frequencies ranging from below one hertz to above 10²⁵ hertz, corresponding to wavelengths from thousands of kilometers down to a fraction of the size of an atomic nucleus.

How the light affect the color we see?
All of the colors we see are a byproduct of spectrum light, as it is reflected off or absorbed into an object. An object that reflects back all of the rays of light will appear white; an object that absorbs all of the rays, black. All of the millions of other colors are produced by a combination of light rays being absorbed and reflected.

Joe and Max shake hands and say goodbye. Joe walks east 0.40 km to a coffee shop, and Max flags a cab and rides north 3.65 km to
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

3.67 km

Explanation:

Joe distance towards coffee shop is,

OB=0.40 km

And the Max distance towards bookstore is,

OA=3.65 km

Now the distance between the Joy and Max will be,

By applying pythagorus theorem,

AB=\sqrt{OB^{2}+OA^{2}}

Substitute 0.40 km for OB and 3.65 km for OA in the above equation.

AB=\sqrt{0.40^{2}+3.65^{2}}\\AB=\sqrt{13.4825} \\AB=3.67 km

Therefore the distance between there destination is 3.67 km.

What is the half-reaction that occurs at the cathode during the electrolysis of molten potassium bromide?
polet [3.4K]

The complete ionization of KBr into its constituents is:<span>
<span>KBr (s)  --->  K+ (aq)  +  Br- (aq)</span></span>

<span>
During electrolysis, oxidation takes place at the anode electrode. This means that an ion is stripped off its electron hence becoming more positive:
<span>2 Br- (aq)  --->  Br2 (g) + 2e- </span></span>

We can see that Bromine gas Br2 is evolved at the anode. 

<span>
<span>Meanwhile at the cathode, the reduction reaction occurs. Which means that the electron from the anode electrode is used to make an ion more negative:
<span>2K+ (aq)  +  2e-  --->  2K (s) </span></span>
Hence, through reduction, solid potassium is deposited on the plate.</span>

 

 

Half reactions:

<span>Anode: 2 Br- (aq)  --->  Br2 (g) + 2e- </span>                       

<span>Cathode: 2K+ (aq)  +  2e-  --->  2K (s) </span>

Granite is mostly used in building work places whereas Gneiss is used for making tombstones, flooring, etc. Why do you think so?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

Granite is durable, as it is hard and tough.

Gneiss has resistance to pressure and mechanical impacts

Explanation:

Granite is an igneous rock. It is mostly used in building works and construction because they are very durable. They are hard and tough and they have no internal structures.

Gneiss is used for flooring, ornamental stone, tombstones because of the fact that it shows resistances to pressure and also mechanical impacts.

<u>how they are formed in nature:</u>

In nature, granite is formed from the cooling down of hot molten magma and it's solidification before it reaches the surface of the earth.

In nature, gneiss is as a result of igneous rock or sedimentary rocks metamorphosing. Gneiss and granite are kind of similar. When subjected to great heat, granite becomes gneiss
