Answer:

Wind farms, nuclear power plant, and hydroelectric power plants

Explanation:

Winds farms:

Pros: Creates electrical energy easily, doesn't cause pollution and no fossil fuels.

Cons: Only works in windy climates, hard to function.

Nuclear plants:

Pros:Creates electrical energy out of wastes, very easy and doesn't require fossil fuels.

Cons: Causes mass pollution, very harmful to the ecosystem and humans.

Hydroelectric plants:

Pros: uses only water and turbines, no fossil fuels either.

Cons: Water usage causes faster evaporation, most dams overuse them.

When an atom makes a transition from a higher energy level to a lower one, a photon is released. What is the wavelength of the p
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Wavelength of the photon depends on transition from different states.

Explanation:

The wavelength of the photon that is emitted from the atom during the transition depends on the transition from different states. If the photon is emitted from n=4 state to n=3 state, the wavelength of photon is 1875 while on the other hand, if the photon is emitted from n=5 state to n=3 state, the wavelength of photon is 1282. If the photon is emitted from n=3 state to n=2 state, the wavelength of photon is 656.

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The forward reaction is exothermic.

Explanation:

  • Le Châtelier's principle states that when there is an dynamic equilibrium, and this equilibrium is disturbed by an external factor, the equilibrium will be shifted in the direction that can cancel the effect of the external factor to reattain the equilibrium.
  • When the mixture turned darker brown, this means that the reaction is shifted towards the left direction (reactants side).
  • The temperature is increased and the reaction shifted to the reverse direction, this means that the forward direction is exothermic.
  • Exothermic reaction releases heat and when increasing the temperature, the reaction will be shifted to the reverse direction to suppress the effect of increasing the temperature.
  • <em>So the right choice is: The forward reaction is exothermic. </em>
