The radioactive elements used in nuclear

(a) Write the dissolution reaction for solid Na2CO3 below. (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Include states-of-matter under

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

For a: The chemical equation for the dissolution of sodium carbonate is $Na_2CO_3(s)\rightarrow Na_2CO_3(aq.)$

For b: The net acid-base reaction is $CO_3^{2-}(aq.)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow OH^-(aq.)+HCO_3^-(aq.)$

Explanation:

For a:

Dissolution reaction is defined as the reaction in which a solid compound gets dissolved in water to form aqueous solution.

The chemical equation for the dissolution of sodium carbonate follows:

$Na_2CO_3(s)\rightarrow Na_2CO_3(aq.)$

Ionization reaction is defined as the reaction in which an ionic compound dissociates into its ions when dissolved in aqueous solution.

The chemical equation for the ionization of sodium carbonate follows:

$Na_2CO_3(aq.)\rightarrow 2Na^+(aq.)+CO_3^{3-}(aq.)$

For b:

Now, the anion formed which is $CO_3^{2-}$ reacts with water to form conjugate acid.

The chemical equation for the reaction of anion with water follows:

$CO_3^{2-}(aq.)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow OH^-(aq.)+HCO_3^-(aq.)$

Hence, the net acid-base reaction of the anion formed and water is written above.

Which of the following types of electromagnetic radiation have higher frequencies than visible light and which have shorter freq

natta225 [31]

Answer:

Higher frequency than visible light - Ultraviolet light, X-rays, and Gamma rays

Lower frequency than visible light - Infrared radiation, microwaves, and Radio waves

Explanation:

The frequencies of electromagnetic radiations vary according to their wavelengths. The relationship between the frequency and wavelength of the waves is expressed such that:

λ = c/f, where λ = wavelength, c = speed of light, and f = frequency.

Thus, there is an inverse relationship between the wavelength and the frequency of electromagnetic waves.

The order of the electromagnetic waves based on their frequency from the lowest to the highest is radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma-rays

Hence, electromagnetic waves with higher frequencies than visible light include ultraviolet light, X-rays, and Gamma rays while those with lower frequencies include Infrared radiation, microwaves, and Radio waves.

What carries the useful energy of a lamp to its surroundings?

serious [3.7K]

A. The potential energy from the batteries in the torch is transferred to the filament of the bulb. The energy is transferred to the surroundings as thermal energy and light. Most of the energy is transferred as thermal energy which is not useful and only some of the energy is transferred as light
