Answer:

Objects that can emit light energy by themselves are known as luminous objects. Objects that cannot emit light energy by themselves are known as non-luminous objects.

Explanation:

<em><u>Luminous objects</u></em>:- The objects that can emit light energy by themselves are known as luminous objects.

Objects like the sun that give out or emit light of their own are luminous objects.

Other examples of luminous bodies are Electric bulb, torch etc.

<em><u>Non-luminous objects</u></em>:- the objects that can not emit light energy by themselves are known as Non- luminous objects.

Objects like the moon that do not give out or emit light of their own are Non- luminous objects.

Moon is an example of a non-luminous object as we can see the moon because it reflects light from the sun.

Other examples of Non luminous bodies are pen, pencil, chair, wood etc.

Luminosity – It is defined as the luminous intensity in a particular direction; or we can say it is the apparent brightness of an image.

The brightness of a star is defined as the total energy radiated in unit time. It is related to the surface area (A) and the effective temperature (TT) ( the temperature of a black body having the same radius as the star and radiating the same amount of energy per unit area in one second ) by a form of Stefan’s law, here is given by

⇒L=AσT4⇒L=AσT4

where 

σ is the Stefan’s constant and L is the luminosity.

Note:

The laptop screen, mobile screen you are looking at right now is luminous but the page of your book is a non-luminous object, which is why you need a light on to read it.

For the reaction HNO3 + Mg(OH)2→ Mg(NO3)2 + H2O, how many grams of magnesium nitrate are produced from 8.00 mol of nitric acid,
ollegr [7]

Answer:

tha mass of magnesium nitrate is 592g

Explanation:

from a balanced chemical equation

2HNO3 + Mg(OH)2→ Mg(NO3)2 + 2H2O

2 mol of nitric acid is equivalent to 1 mol of magnesium nitrate. then 8 mol of nitric acid will be equivalent to 4 mol of magnesium nitrate.

Analysis of skunk spray yields a molecule with 44.77% c, 7.46% h and 47.76% s by mass. what is the empirical formula for this mo
stiv31 [10]
Suppose we have 100 gr of the substance. Then by weight, it would contain 44.77 gr of C, 7.46 gr of H and 47.76 gr of S. We need to look up the atomic weights of these atoms; M_H=1, M_C=12, M_S=32. The following formula holds (where n are the moles of the substance, M its molecular mass and m its mass): n=m/M. Substituting the known quantities for each element, we get that the substance has 3.73 moles of C, 7.46 moles of H and 1.49 moles of S. In the empirical formula for the molecule, all atoms appear an integer amout of times. Hence, for every mole of Sulfur, we have 2.5 moles of C and 5 moles of H (by taking the moles ratios). Thus, for every 2 moles of sulfur, we have 5 moles of C and 10 moles of H. Now that all the coefficients are integer, we have arrived at an empirical formula for the skunk spray agent: C_5H_{10}S_2

The charges of a set of isoelectronic ions vary from 3+ to 3-. Place the ions in order of increasing size.
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

  Iso-electronic species have same number of electrons . Positive charged ions will have smaller size . As electrons add , size increases due to electronic repulsion .

Following species are isoelectronic .

Al³⁺ < Mg²⁺ < Na¹⁺ < Ne < F⁻¹ < O⁻² < N⁻³

How did electrons gain energy in order to jump to higher energy levels?
Alla [95]

Answer: An electron will jump to a higher energy level when excited by an external energy gain such as a large heat increase or the presence of an electrical field, or collision with another electron.
