How and why do we see colors?

Chemistry
1 answer:
vladimir1956 [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Light receptors within the eye transmit messages to the brain, which produces the familiar sensations of color. Newton observed that color is not inherent in objects. Rather, the surface of an object reflects some colors and absorbs all the others. We perceive only the reflected colors.

This is one of the explanations I could think of,

Many reactions are incomplete and the reactants are not completely converted to products. Understandably due to loss in the process or inefficiency of the chemical reaction

) The C O bond dissociation energy in CO2 is 799 kJ/mol. The maximum wavelength of electromagnetic radiation required to rupture
Kitty [74]

Answer:

λ = 150 nm

Explanation:

For C-O bond rupture:

The required energy to rupture C-O bond = bond energy of C-O bond

= 799 kJ/mol

\mathsf{= 799 \ kJ/mol \times ( \dfrac{1 \ mol }{6.023 \times 10^{23} \ C-O \ bonds })}

\mathsf{= 1.3265 \times 10^{-21}  \ kJ/ C-O \ bond}

\mathsf{= 1.33 \times 10^{-18} \ J/C-O \ bond}

Recall that the wavelength associated with energy and frequency is expressed as:

E = \dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

\lambda = \dfrac{hc}{E}

\lambda = \dfrac{(6.626 \times 10^{-34} \ J.s^{-1}) \times (3.0 \times 10^8 \ ms^{-1})}{ 1.33 \times 10^{-18} \ J/C-O \ bond}}

\mathsf{\lambda = 1.50 \times 10^{-7} \ m}

λ = 150 nm

A standard solution contained 0.842 g/L of solute. A student put 0.2mL of standard and 0.8mL water into a test tube. What is the
finlep [7]
Answer is: new concentration is 0,168 mg/mL.
d(solution) = 0,842 g/L.
V(solution) = 0,2 mL = 0,0002 L.
V(water) = 0,8 mL.
V₁(solution) = V(solution) + V(water).
V₁(solution) = 0,8 mL + 0,2 mL = 1 mL.
m(solution) = 0,0002 L · 0,842 g/L · 1000.
m(solution) = 0,168 mg.
d₁(solution) = m(solution) / V₁(solution).
d₁(solution) = 0,168 mg/mL.
