Which statement best describes the use of catalytic converters in automobiles?
Stells [14]

Answer:

The statement that best describes the use of catalytic converters in automobiles is;

They oxidize hydrocarbons to form less toxic gases

Explanation:

Catalytic converters

A working engine produces some air pollutants which are made due to fuel not completely burnt in the engine, including unburnt gasoline (a hydrocarbon), nitrogen oxides, and carbon monoxide

Carbon monoxide is poisonous to breathe in if present in the air around us, and nitrogen oxides causes acid rain and smog, while hydrocarbon from the gasoline causes smog

The catalyst in the catalytic converters aids in the conversion of the harmful gases produced by the car engine into harmless gases such as the types of gases already existing in the atmosphere and therefore, can be released into the air

The catalysts in the catalytic converter work by either oxidizing some of the harmful gases such as the unburnt hydrocarbons, or by reducing the other harmful gases such as the nitrogen oxides.

Therefore, the statement that best describes the use of catalytic converters in automobiles is that they oxidize hydrocarbons to form less toxic gases

Which will NOT occur when a light tray ray interacts with a smooth pane of glass?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

B) diffraction

Explanation:

A smooth pane of glass does not diffract light. A light passing through a smooth pane of glass may be absorbed, reflected or transmitted.

Diffraction only occurs with special types of glasses embedded with a diffraction grating and are called super prisms. Diffraction glasses use a a gradient lens which is able to  separate light into all the colors of the rainbow.

Recall that diffraction is the separation of white light into its component wavelengths.

Bose-Einstein condensation occurs at what temperature?
lyudmila [28]

Bose Einstein condensation occur at temperature very close to absolute zero i.e 273.15 degrees centigrade.. Under such conditions, large quantity of Boson occupies the lowest quantum state, at which point microscopic quantum phenomena becomes apparent macroscopically.  A BEC is formed by cooling a gas of extremely low density about one hundred thousandth the density of normal air, to ultra low temperature.
