What is a “ medium” in regards to waves ?

2 answers:

5 0

In a similar manner, a wave medium is the substance that carries a wave (or disturbance) from one location to another. ... In the case of our slinky wave, the medium through that the wave travels is the slinky coils. In the case of a water wave in the ocean, the medium through which the wave travels is the ocean water.

A medium can be anything that a wave can pass through e.g the medium can be solid objects, air, water, etc.

A reaction of importance in the formation of smog is that between ozone and nitrogen monoxide described by O 3 ( g ) + NO ( g )

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

(a) 7.11x10⁻⁴ M/s

(b) 2.56 mol.L⁻¹.h⁻¹

Explanation:

(a) The reaction is:

O₃(g) + NO(g) → O₂(g) + NO₂(g) (1)

The reaction rate of equation (1) is given by:

$rate = k*[O_{3}][NO]$ (2)

We have:

k: is the rate constant of reaction = 3.91x10⁶ M⁻¹.s⁻¹

[O₃]₀ = 2.35x10⁻⁶ M

[NO]₀ = 7.74x10⁻⁵ M

Hence, to find the inital reacion rate we will use equation (2):

$rate = k*[O_{3}]_{0}[NO]_{0} = 3.91 \cdot 10^{6} M^{-1}s^{-1}*2.35\cdot 10^{-6} M*7.74 \cdot 10^{-5} M = 7.11 \cdot 10^{-4} M/s$

Therefore, the inital reaction rate is 7.11x10⁻⁴ M/s

(b) The number of moles of NO₂(g) produced per hour per liter of air is:

t = 1 h

V = 1 L

$\frac{\Delta[NO_{2}]}{\Delta t} = rate$

$\frac{\Delta[NO_{2}]}{\Delta t} = 7.11 \cdot 10^{-4} M/s*\frac{3600 s}{1 h} = 2.56 mol.L^{-1}.h{-1}$

Hence, the number of moles of NO₂(g) produced per hour per liter of air is 2.56 mol.L⁻¹.h⁻¹

I hope it helps you!

Select all the species that are ions. HCl NaCl NH4+ H2PO4- CCl4 H3O+

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

NH₄⁺

H₂PO₄⁻

H₃O⁺

Explanation:

An ion is an atom or molecule with a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons.

Ion may be positively charged "cation" or negatively charged "anion".

Neutral molecule has a net charge of zero.

So, the species that are ions are:

NH₄⁺

H₂PO₄⁻

H₃O⁺

If you change your workout from a

Westkost [7]

Answer:

HIIT workouts are anaerobic, and cardiovascular endurance workouts are usually aerobic, depending on how much you work out. If you changed speed and switched to a different workout immediately after what you did before, your heart rate would increase, and you would experience pain on the side of your abdominal. It can be because your body isn’t used to the change in speed and endurance.
