What did the Atomic Bomb lead to?

The dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki led to the end of World War II. It also sparked a global arms race as countries raced to develop their own nuclear weapons. Additionally, it raised ethical and moral concerns about the use of such powerful and destructive weapons.


When sunlight excites electrons in chlorophyll how do the electrons change?

When a chlorophyll molecule absorbs light, the process of photosynthesis, or the transfer of light into sugar, begins. Chlorophyll is a green liquid inside one part of a plant cell: the chloroplast. When light hits the chlorophyll molecule, it becomes excited. This energy passes through other chlorophyll molecules, and into the reaction center of Photosystem II: this is the location of the first stage of photosynthesis, and the electron transport chain. For each photon of light that enters and excites a chlorophyll molecule, one electron is released from the reaction center of Photosystem II. When two electrons are released, they are transferred to Plastoquinone Qb, a mobile carrier, which picks up two protons and starts moving towards the Cytochrome b6f complex. Cytochrome b6f, like Photosystem II, is a complex where photosynthesis processes occur.


What happens to the movement of molecule when their temperature is raised?

They begin to move faster. The increased temperature increases the energy of the molecule.


What decreases with increasing attraction between molecules?

The distance between molecules decreases as attraction increases, leading to a stronger binding force and higher potential energy. This can result in a decrease in the potential energy of the system and a more stable configuration.


What is the difference between AAS and Flame photometer?

flame photometry is a type of atomic EMISSION spectroscopy. The sample is excited (raised to a high temperature), causing the emission of light. the wavelength of the emitted light is a function of the energy of the excited electrons, so each element has a characteristic set of wavelengths. usually a single wavelength is detected and the intensity of the emission is used to calculate concentration. Atomic adsorption works in the reverse way. A light of a standard wavelength (a wavelength characteristic of the target element) is passed through a flame containing the unknown substance, and the concentration of the target element is determined by the reduction in the energy of this light as it passes through the flame. the light is adsorbed by the electrons in the target element, kicking them into a higher orbit or completely out of the atom, depending on the energy involved. basically, one method involves the emission of the energy as an excited electron kicks back down to a lower state, and the other involves the adsorption of energy as an electron is kicked up an energy state. Same basic principle-change in electron energy relates to light of a specified wavelength and the change in the amount of that light can be measured and converted to a concentration.

What is the UN atomic energy commission?

The UN Atomic Energy Commission, or United Nations International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), is an international organization that promotes the peaceful use of nuclear energy and works to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons. It provides technical support and guidance to countries pursuing nuclear energy programs and conducts inspections to ensure compliance with non-proliferation agreements.

What happens chemically when chlorophyll absorbs light energy?

When chlorophyll absorbs light, much of the energy is transferred directly to electrons in the chlorophyll molecule, raising the energy levels of these electrons. These high-energy electrons make photosynthesis work


What form of potential energy is stored in raised objects?

The potential energy stored in raised objects is gravitational potential energy. This form of energy is due to the object's position in a gravitational field and its ability to do work when it falls or moves to a lower position.


What is the source of potentail energy?

Let's take an example: gravitational potential energy. An object has more potential energy if it is raised to a higher position. The energy comes from whatever raised it up, although it is also possible (as in the case of meteorites) that the object was never on the ground in the first place.Let's take an example: gravitational potential energy.

Does a raised hammer possess gravitational potential energy?

Yes. When a hammer is raised above the ground, it gains gravitational potential energy due to its position in the Earth's gravitational field. This potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy as the hammer falls.
