How and why do we see colors?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Light receptors within the eye transmit messages to the brain, which produces the familiar sensations of color. Newton observed that color is not inherent in objects. Rather, the surface of an object reflects some colors and absorbs all the others. We perceive only the reflected colors.

A hot air ballon will rise in air because:

Answers

Answer: C

Explanation:

Hot air is a lot less dense for a few reasons. Hot air essentially means the particles have more kinetic energy, and move around a lot more. Cold air is dense because the particles move a lot less, have less energy, and are closer together.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Since the balloon itself is heavier than air, it must be filled with a large volume of something much lighter—either hot air or a very light gas, such as helium. Because the combined weight of the balloon and the gas is less than the weight of an equal volume of surrounding air, the balloon rises.

When the following molecular equation is balanced using the smallest possible integer coefficients, the values of these coefficients are: sodium chloride (aq) silver nitrate (aq) silver chloride (s) sodium nitrate (aq)

Answers

Answer:

1 on each compound there

Explanation:

A balanced reaction is a reaction that has the same number of atoms in the reactants and products. If this number is not the same, we need to balance it putting some numbers as coefficients behind the compound or element that needs to be balanced, For example:

NH₃ ------> N₂ + H₂

As you can see in this reaction, we have 1 nitrogen and 3 hydrogens in the reactants, and in the side of products we have 2 of each element. This needs to be balanced. To do this we put a number as coeffcient to balance the atoms. In this case, we can put a number 2 behind the NH₃, so the number of atoms of nitrogen becomes 2:

2NH₃ ------> N₂ + H₂

But this 2, changes the number of hydrogens, we now have 6 (cause 2 * 3 = 6), so, let's balance hydrogen on the products to be 6, putting a 3:

2NH₃ ------> N₂ + 3H₂

Now, the reaction is balanced in each side of the reaction.

Applying the same principle to the reaction of this exercise we have the following:

NaCl(aq) + AgNO₃(aq) ---------> AgCl(s) + NaNO₃(aq)

As you can see, we have the same number of atoms on each side:

Na: 1;    Cl: 1;    Ag: 1;  N: 1;  O: 3

So we don't need to balance this reaction, with just putting the number 1 or none, is perfectly balanced.

Hope this helps

In this case you have unlimited iron, but only 6.40 moles of oxygen (O2). How much Fe2O3 can you produce?

Answers

Answer: 682 grams

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is:

[tex]4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3[/tex]

[tex]O_2[/tex] is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and [tex]Fe[/tex] is the excess reagent.

According to stoichiometry :

3 moles of [tex]O_2[/tex] produce = 2 moles of [tex]Fe_2O_3[/tex]

Thus 6.40 moles of [tex]O_2[/tex] will produce=[tex]\frac{2}{3}\times 6.40=4.27moles[/tex]  of [tex]Fe_2O_3[/tex]

Mass of [tex]Fe_2O_3=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=4.27moles\times 159.69g/mol=682g[/tex]

Thus 682 g of [tex]Fe_2O_3[/tex] will be produced from 6.40 moles of oxygen

this information, calculate the density of the metal. *

Answers

Answer:

[tex]d=2.15g/mL[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the density of the metal is computed as shown below:

[tex]d=\frac{m}{V}[/tex]

We need to calculate the volume of the solid by subtracting the final volume and the initial volume of water:

[tex]V=54.10mL-45.50mL\\\\V=8.60mL[/tex]

Thus, we obtain:

[tex]d=\frac{18.5g}{8.60mL}\\\\d=2.15g/mL[/tex]

Radioactive decay follows first-order kinetics. If a sample of I-131 decays from 25.0 mg to 8.25 mg in 12.8 days, what is the rate constant, k?

Answers

Answer:

k = 0.0866 days⁻¹

Explanation:

The isotope decay of the atom follows the equation:

ln [A] = -kt + Ln[A]₀

Where [A] is the amount of the isotope after time t = 8.25mg

Time = 12.8days

k is rate constant

[A]₀ is actual amount of the isotope = 25.0mg

Replacing:

ln 8.25mg = -k*12.8days + ln 25.0mg

2.11 - 3.22 = -k*12.8days

-1.11 = -k12.8days

k = 0.0866 days⁻¹

How many grams of propane, C3H8, are needed to make 140 grams of water?

Answers

Answer:

85.6 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced combustion equation

C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ ⇒ 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 140 g of H₂O

The molar mass of H₂O is 18.02 g/mol.

140 g × 1 mol/18.02 g = 7.77 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of C₃H₈ needed to produce 7.77 moles of H₂O

The molar ratio of C₃H₈ to H₂O is 1:4. The moles of C₃H₈ needed are 1/4 × 7.77 mol = 1.94 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 1.94 moles of C₃H₈

The molar mass of C₃H₈ is 44.10 g/mol.

1.94 mol × 44.10 g/mol = 85.6 g

Answer:

3. I can't see the diagram so I don't know the answer (it's a glitch on my part not yours, my school district blocks images automatically on their rented chromebooks)

4.  A. I, and II only

Explanation:

   When we measure the temperature of a solution, and we notice that the temperature of the water is decreasing, then this is an endothermic reaction..

   The dissolved solute (the "invisible" ions) are absorbing the heat, causing the water around it to be colder.. **Heat moves from hot to cold, so the water is losing it's heat and the dissolving (dissolved solute) is gaining heat, meaning that it is Endothermic.

    When a reaction is endothermic, the energy that is required to break bonds and attractive forces is greater than the energy required to form bonds and attractive forces. This means that the bonds in the reactants are stronger than in the products and deltaH is positive. Since we know that the energy in the reactants is greater, there is more heat in the reactants. This is also why the dissolved solute would be gaining heat.. If the energy of the reactants is stronger, when it breaks, it will release a lot of energy that the dissolved solute will be absorbing.

     Think, heat (q, released or absorbed) is measured in Joules, the higher the Joules, the hotter something will be. So, if the heat (q) is negative, that represents the amount of Joules (heat) being released.  If it is positive, that is the amount being absorbed. So, if heat is being absorbed then deltaH is positive.  

    If the diagram shows the products being at a higher energy level than the reactants, then the diagram shows an endothermic reaction.. If we see that the energy from the products is greater, than the energy of the system increased as it absorbed energy from its surroundings.

If the diagrams shows the reactants being at a higher energy level than the products, then the diagram shows an exothermic reaction.. Think of it this way, if we see that the energy from the reactants was greater, than the energy of the system was originally greater than the surroundings, but now (observing the products), it is not, as energy was lost to the surroundings, making this an exothermic reaction.

    For exothermic reactions, the energy that is required to break bonds and attractive forces is less than the energy required to form bonds and attractive forces.. This means that energy in the products are greater, so as these bonds are broken and energy is released, the surroundings gain energy/heat. This means that the energy is favorable (more stable), the more negative our potential energy (energy of the system) is, the more favorable our process is.

Explain the following statement from the text: “Magnets exert magnetic force as a result of magnetic field.

Answers

Answer:

All magnets have north and south poles. Opposite poles are attracted to each other, while the same poles repel each other. When you rub a piece of iron along a magnet, the north-seeking poles of the atoms in the iron line up in the same direction.

Magnets exert magnetic force as a result of magnetic field attraction between opposite poles and magnetic field repulsion between same poles.

What are magnets?

Magnets are the substance in which north and south poles present and they show attraction towards the different poles and repulsion towards the same pole.

Due to presence of this poles magnets have their own magnetic field and direction of this field governs from north to south pole. Due to this magnetic field magnets exert magnetic force towards some metals like iron and show attraction.

Hence, due to presence of different poles in a magnet, they exerts  magnetic force.

how does a decrease in potential energy during a chemical rwaction relate to the temperature of the surroundings​

Answers

Answer: If the potential energy of the reaction system decreases, then kinetic energy in the surroundings increases and the temperature of the surroundings rises

Explanation:

The decrease in the potential energy results in an increase in the temperature of the system and surroundings.

Mechanical energy has been described as the sum of the kinetic and the potential energy in the system. With the increase in the potential energy, there has been a decrease in the kinetic energy and vice versa.

The decrease in the potential energy results in an increase in the kinetic energy of the system. The kinetic energy has been termed as the energy of performing work. The rise in the kinetic energy results in an increase in the work done in the system and there has been an increase in the temperature of the system.

Thus, the decrease in the potential energy results in an increase in the temperature of the system and surroundings.
