Nonane (b) has the highest melting point.
-----------------------------
A caveat: I'm assuming that we're dealing with the straight-chain isomers of these alkanes (specifically pentane and nonane). The straight-chain isomer of pentane (<em>n</em>-pentane, CH3-[CH2]3-CH3) has a melting point of -129.8 °C; the straight-chain isomer of nonane (<em>n-</em>nonane, CH3-[CH2]7-CH3) has a melting point of -53.5 °C. The pattern holds as you go down (or up): The more carbon atoms, the higher the melting point. So, in decreasing order of melting points here, you'd have the following: nonane > pentane > butane > ethane.
However, one structural isomer of pentane, neopentane, has a melting point of -16.4 °C, which is <em>higher </em>that the melting point of <em>n</em>-nonane despite neopentane having the same molecular formula as its straight-chain isomer. Of course, you're not to blame for coming up with this question; this is just some extra info to keep in mind.
Answer:
The type of liquid in the tub (salt water or vinegar)
Explanation:
<em>The manipulated independent variable in Anita's experiment is </em><em>the type of liquid in the tub. </em>
The independent variable is the controlled or manipulated variable in the course of an experiment. It can also be referred to as the 'cause' variable which has the capacity to produce 'effects' on another variable - the dependent variable.
In this case, the type of liquid the tub is filled (salt water or vinegar) will hypothetically affect the rusting period of the steel. Hence, the dependent variable is the type of liquid the tub is filled while the dependent variable would be the time it takes for the steel to get rusted.
Answer:
Electromagnetic radiation is a form of energy that is produced by oscillating electric and magnetic disturbance, or by the movement of electrically charged particles traveling through a vacuum or matter. The electric and magnetic fields come at right angles to each other and combined wave moves perpendicular to both magnetic and electric oscillating fields thus the disturbance. Electron radiation is released as photons, which are bundles of light energy that travel at the speed of light as quantized harmonic waves. This energy is then grouped into categories based on its wavelength into the electromagnetic spectrum. These electric and magnetic waves travel perpendicular to each other and have certain characteristics, including amplitude, wavelength, and frequency.
General Properties of all electromagnetic radiation:
Electromagnetic radiation can travel through empty space. Most other types of waves must travel through some sort of substance. For example, sound waves need either a gas, solid, or liquid to pass through in order to be heard.
The speed of light is always a constant. (Speed of light : 2.99792458 x 108 m s-1)
Wavelengths are measured between the distances of either crests or troughs. It is usually characterized by the Greek symbol λ .
