Compound 1:     CS₂

Oxidation State of S  =  -2

Overall Charge on Molecule  = 0

So,
                             C + (-2)₂  =  0

                             C  -4  =  0
 
                             C  =  +4
Result: 
                         
   O.S of C  =  +4

                             
O.S of S  =  -2

Compound 2:     CH₃S-S-CH₃ or H₆C₂S₂

Oxidation State of H  =  +1

Oxidation State of S  =  -2

Overall Charge on Molecule  = 0
So,
                             (H)₆ + (C)₂ + (S)₂  =  0

                             (+1)₆ + (C)₂ + (-2)₂  =  0 

                             +6 + (C)₂ -4  =  0

                                 
   (C)₂  =  -6 + 4

                                     (C)₂  =  -2

                                       C  =  -1
Result: 
                         
    O.S of C  =  -1

                              
O.S of S  =  -2

                              
O.S of H  =  +1

Which equation shows how wavelength is related to velocity and frequency?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The correct option is the option;

\lambda = \dfrac{v}{f}

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two successive crests of the wave

Therefore, the wavelength, λ, is given by the fraction of the velocity, <em>v</em>, of the wave divided by the frequency, <em>f</em>, (the number of cycles that pass through a point) of the wave

Mathematically, we have;

The \ wavelength, \ \lambda = \dfrac{The \ wave \ velocity, \ v}{The \ wave \ frequency, \ f}

\lambda = \dfrac{v}{f}

If there is a 2 kg ball with the same kinetic energy which one will be moving faster
Andrew [12]

Answer:

If you double the mass of an object, you double the kinetic energy. If you double the speed of an object, the kinetic energy increases by four times. The word "kinetic" comes from the Greek word "kinesis" which means motion. Kinetic energy can be passed from one object to another in the form of a collision.

What is the process for extracting oils
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Oil is extracted by three general methods: rendering, used with animal products and oleaginous fruits; mechanical pressing, for oil-bearing seeds and nuts; and extracting with volatile solvents, employed in large-scale operations for a more complete extraction than is possible with pressing.
