Answer:

C: The C horizon is a subsurface horizon. It is the least weathered horizon. Also known as the saprolite, it is unconsolidated, loose parent material. The master horizons may be followed by a subscript to make further distinctions between differences within one master horizon.

What will happen to the final pressure of a cylinder when the volume is doubled.

OLEGan [10]

If temperature were to double the pressure would likewise double. Increased temperature would increase the energy of the molecules and the number of collisions would also increase causing the increase in pressure.

What is the wavenumber of the radiation emitted when a hydrogen

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer: Wavenumber of the radiation emitted is $0.08\times 10^{8}m^{-1}$

Explanation:

The relationship between wavelength and energy of the wave follows the equation:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where,

E = energy of the radiation = $1.634\times 10^{-18}J$

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}Js$

c = speed of light = $3\times 10^8m/s$

$\lambda$ = wavelength of radiation = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.634\times 10^{-18}J=\frac{(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times (3\times 10^8m/s)}{\lambda}\\\\\lambda=12.16\times 10^{-8}m$

$\bar {\nu}=\frac{1}{\lambda}=\frac{1}{12.16\times 10^{-8}}=0.08\times 10^{8}m^{-1}$

Thus wavenumber of the radiation emitted is $0.08\times 10^{8}m^{-1}$

Identify the correct coefificients to balance it<br> -C3H8+O2 to -CO2 +-H2O

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

${\rm 1\; C_3H_8} + {\rm 5\; O_2} \to {3\; \rm CO_2} + {4\; \rm H_2O}$ .

Explanation:

${\rm ?\; C_3H_8} + {\rm ?\; O_2} \to {?\; \rm CO_2} + {?\; \rm H_2O}$ .

Among the four species in this reaction, $\rm C_3H_8$ is species with the largest number of atoms per molecule. Assume that the coefficient of this compound is $1$ .

${\rm 1\; C_3H_8} + {\rm ?\; O_2} \to {?\; \rm CO_2} + {?\; \rm H_2O}$ .

Number of atoms on the left-hand side of the reaction:

$\rm C$ : $1 \times 3 = 3$ .
$\rm H$ : $1 \times 8 = 8$ .
$\rm O$ : not found yet.

By the conservation of atoms, the number of atoms on the right-hand side of the reaction should match those on the left-hand side. In this reaction, $\rm CO_2$ is the only product with carbon atoms, whereas $\rm H_2O$ is the only product with hydrogen atoms. These $3$ carbon atoms and $8$ hydrogen atoms would correspond to:

$3 / 1 = 3$ $\rm CO_2$ molecules, and
$8 / 2 = 4$ $\rm H_2O$ molecules.

${\rm 1\; C_3H_8} + {\rm ?\; O_2} \to {3\; \rm CO_2} + {4\; \rm H_2O}$ .

Number of atoms on the right-hand side of the reaction:

$\rm C$ : $3 \times 1 = 3$ .
$\rm H$ : $4 \times 2 = 8$ .
$\rm O$ : $3 \times 2 + 4 \times 1 = 10$ .

The number of $\rm O$ atoms on the left-hand side should match those on the right-hand side. In this reaction, $\rm O_2$ is the only reactant with $\rm O\!$ atoms. These $10$ $\rm \! O$ atoms would correspond to:
