Answer:

The frequency of the electromagnetic wave is 7.22891566 × 10¹⁴ Hz

Explanation:

The wavelength of the electromagnetic wave, λ = 415 nm

The speed of an electromagnetic wave, c ≈ 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s

Given that an electromagnetic wave is a periodic wave, we have;

The speed of the electromagnetic wave, c = f×λ

Where;

f = The frequency of the electromagnetic wave

Therefore, we have;

f = c/λ

From which we have;

f = (3.0 × 10⁸ m/s)/(415 nm) = 7.22891566 × 10¹⁴ /s = 7.22891566 × 10¹⁴ Hz

The frequency of the electromagnetic wave, f = 7.22891566 × 10¹⁴ Hz

An unsaturated solution is formed when 80 grams of a salt is dissolved in 100 grams of water at 40. This salt could be ?

LekaFEV [45]

A simple way to go about this is that we look at the solubility curve, on the x axis we first look at the temperature and then the corresponding value of solute/100g H2O on the y axis, from the 4 curves above only NaNO3 has a curve that can accommodate 80g of salt at 40 without being Saturated since at 40 degrees it can accommodate 105g of salt to become completely Saturated.

0.00000000082 -<br> scientific notation

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

8.2 x 106^-11

Explanation:

To begin this problem you must remember the basic rule of scientific notation, which is, must be between 1-10. .000000000082 is much smaller than 1. However by moving the decimal 11 spots to the right, we can make it 8.2

Continue to move the decimal to the right until the value is in the 1-10 range. Make sure to count the moves to the right.

Once the decimal is in the right spot count the spots moved.

Since the number is wayyy smaller than the answer given the number will be negative 10^-11, in order to make it what is was before.

Why a neutral atom has the same number of protons and electrons

Alex777 [14]

Explanation:

When an atom has an equal number of electrons and protons, it has an equal number of negative electric charges (the electrons) and positive electric charges (the protons). The total electric charge of the atom is therefore zero and the atom is said to be neutral. ... Chemically, we say that the atoms have formed bonds.
