Answer:

They all need to use each other to function?

Explanation:

Natural selection are positive traits, mutation is radioactive, and adaption is when natural selection works.

Mutation is when something is turning into something better adaptation is like where you live but your not used to the weather but you adapt to it natural selection is where birds or grass insects and plants are put in together in a food chain and extinction is where it’s not living anymore

Why must energy be used to produce the colors seen
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Visible light contains all the colors from violet to red. An object gets its color when electrons absorb energy from the light and become “excited” (raised to a state of increased energy). The excited electrons absorb certain wavelengths of light.

The Sun emits light of every possible frequency at once, including at frequencies too high or too low for us to see. But the Sun's highest intensity radiation aligns approximately with our visible range – red through blue. That's no coincidence – like all animals on Earth, we have evolved to make best use of the light available.

The work function of a silver surface is 4.73 eV. What would happen if the silver is hit with a photon with 2.5 eV of energy?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:Nothing, the photon just bounces off the surface.

Explanation:

According to Albert Einstein, a photoelectron can only be emitted from a metal surface when the energy of the incident photon is greater than the work function of the metal.

In the scenario described in the question, the work function of the metal is greater than the energy of the photon. Hence, the photon just bounces off the metal surface without emitting any electron.

Al wonders if adding salt to water will affect how long it takes the water to
love history [14]

The hypothesis is that salt water freezes faster than fresh water.

The dependent variable is time taken for ice to appear.

The independent variable is presence or absence of salt

The constants are the amount of water in each tray, freezing conditions and length of time of exposure to freezing condition.

The control group is the tray to which salt was not added

The experimental group is the tray to which salt was added

The presence of solutes in a solution causes the freezing point depression.

A solution is made up of a solute and a solvent. In the presence of a solute, the freezing point of a pure solvent is decreased. This is because freezing point is a colligative property.

Colligative properties depend on the amount of solute present.

Hence, the pure water freezes faster (ice begin to appear earlier) than the salt water.

The hypothesis put forward in this experiment was found to be invalid by the experiment.

For more about colligative properties, see

I know how to do electron configuration, but I think I’m doing the rest wrong. Answers and explanations would be much appreciate
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Your answers seem great so far, except for a tiny issue: With the ionic symbols, try to get into the habit of using "+", with metals, like sodium, and try to use the integer first. So, for example, a potassium ion would be K^+, while an oxide ion would be O^2-


Let's take aluminium as an example I'll work through:

Aluminium, with it's atomic number of 13, will have an electronic configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6 1s2 2p1. So it would have 2, 8, 3 electrons in the first three energy levels, respectively.

Usually, if an elemental atom has a valence electron (highest energy level electron) count less than 4, it almost always will lose electrons. Since aluminium has 3, it will also lose the electrons.

It loses the 3 valence electrons, and so will end up with 10 electrons.

Since the atomic number also tells how many protons it has, we know that an aluminium atom has 13 protons, which doesn't change.

Since the size of the charges of a proton and an electron are the same, with protons being positive and the electrons being negative, an aluminium ion would have a charge of +3, and the Ionic symbol would be Al^3+



Hope I helped! xx
