Explain how astronomers use spectrographs to identify the composition of a star.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Gwar [14]3 years ago
4 0
Each element absorbs light at specific wavelengths unique to that atom. When astronomers look at an object's spectrum, they can determine its composition based on these wavelengths. The most common method astronomers use to determine the composition of stars, planets, and other objects is spectroscopy.
hope this helps you! :-)

Boyle's law states that the pressure of a gas is always:
natka813 [3]

Answer:

d. inversely proportional to the volume of its container.

Explanation:

Boyle's law  states that at constant temperature and number of moles, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas.

Thus, P ∝ T

P is the pressure

T is the temperature

For two gases at same temperature, the law can be written as:-

{P_1}\times {V_1}={P_2}\times {V_2}

<u>Thus, according to the question, the answer is:- d. inversely proportional to the volume of its container.</u>

Ex 1) 45.2 g of Zn = _____ moles Zn<br><br> Ex 2) 0.568 moles Ag = _____ grams Ag
Jlenok [28]

the molar mass of Zn is 65

  • number of mole(n)=reacting mass/molar mass
  • n=45.2/65
  • =0.70g/mol

2.the molar mass of Ag is 108

  • 0.568=m/108
  • then cross multiply
  • m=0.568×108
  • m=61.3g
