Answer:

In our solar system, Mercury and Venus are inferior planets: their orbits are entirely inside the Earth's orbit. When seen from the Earth, inferior planets go through phases, like the Moon's. An inferior planet on the same side of the sun as the Earth appears dark and is not easy to see.

Explanation:

yes it is true

How much energy is needed to raise the temperature of 125g of water from 25.0oC to 35.0oC? The specific heat of water is 4.184

Anvisha [2.4K]

Hello!

To find the amount of energy need to raise the temperature of 125 grams of water from 25.0° C to 35.0° C, we will need to use the formula: q = mcΔt.

In this formula, q is the heat absorbed, m is the mass, c is the specific heat, and Δt is the change in temperature, which is found by final temperature minus the initial temperature.

Firstly, we can find the change in temperature. We are given the initial temperature, which is 25.0° C and the final temperature, which is 35.0° C. It is found by subtract the final temperature from the initial temperature.

35.0° C - 25.0° C = 10.0° C

We are also given the specific heat and the grams of water. With that, we can substitute the given values into the equation and multiply.

q = 125 g × 4.184 J/g °C × 10.0° C

q = 523 J/°C × 10.0° C

q = 5230 J

Therefore, it will take 5230 joules (J) to raise the temperature of the water.

As a form of energy, light has specific properties such as color and brightness. Some properties can only be seen with special t

Answer:

D. As white light passes through a prism , it bends and separates into different colors

Explanation:

When light enters a prism, it experiences a phenomenon called 'refraction'.

Refraction occurs when light crosses the interface between two mediums with different optical density; when this happens, the light bends and also changes speed.

The angle at which the ray of light is refracted into the second medium depends on the optical density of the two mediums, but also on the wavelength of the light.

In particular, longer wavelengths (red color) are refracted the least, while shorter wavelengths (violet color) are refracted the most.

As a result, when white light (consisting of all the colors of visible light) enters into a prism, they different wavelengths are separated: therefore, white light separates into different colors.

So, the correct answer is

D. As white light passes through a prism , it bends and separates into different colors

The acid HOCl (hypochlorous acid) is produced by bubbling chlorine gas through a suspension of solid mercury(II) oxide particles

Answer: The expression for equilibrium constant is $K_{eq}=\frac{[HOCl]^2}{[H_2O][Cl_2]^2}$

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_{eq}$

For the general chemical equation:

$aA+bB\rightleftharpoons cC+dD$

The expression for $K_c$ is given as:

$K_c=\frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b}$

For the given chemical reaction:

$2HgO(s)+H_2O(l)+2Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2HOCl(aq.)+HgO.HgCl_2(s)$

The expression for $K_{eq}$ is given as:

$K_{eq}=\frac{[HOCl]^2[HgO.HgCl_2]}{[HgO]^2[H_2O][Cl_2]^2}$

The concentration of solid is taken to be 0.

So, the expression for $K_{eq}$ is given as:

$K_{eq}=\frac{[HOCl]^2}{[H_2O][Cl_2]^2}$

What is true for the energy involved in an explosion?

Sladkaya [172]

The correct answer is this one: "The amount of energy before and after the explosion depends on the type of reaction." The energy involved in an explosion is that the amount of energy before and after the explosion depends on the type of reaction, how strong and how weak; how destructive or less destructive.
