Radha sengupta answered |
Explanation:
Sound Wave Characteristics:
- Sound is a type of longitudinal wave that travels through a medium.
- It cannot travel through a vacuum, as it requires a medium to propagate.
- The frequency of a sound wave determines its pitch, where higher frequencies produce higher pitches.
- The amplitude of the wave determines its loudness, with larger amplitudes producing louder sounds.
- The speed of sound is fastest in solids due to the closely packed particles that allow for faster transmission of the wave.
Therefore, the correct option is:
(i) Longitudinal
(ii) Vacuum
(iii) Frequency
(iv) Amplitude
(v) Solids
This explanation breaks down the characteristics of sound waves and clarifies why each option is the most suitable choice for filling in the blanks.

Ishita Kumar answered |
Explanation:
NaCl Compound:
- The compound 'W' mentioned in the question with the formula NaCl is sodium chloride, commonly known as table salt.
Bonding in NaCl:
- Sodium chloride (NaCl) is an ionic compound.
- It is formed when sodium (Na) atoms lose an electron to form Na+ ions, and chlorine (Cl) atoms gain an electron to form Cl- ions.
- The attraction between these positively charged sodium ions and negatively charged chloride ions results in the formation of ionic bonds.
Characteristics of Ionic Bonds:
- Ionic bonds are formed between a metal (sodium) and a non-metal (chlorine).
- These bonds are formed through the transfer of electrons from one atom to another, resulting in the formation of ions.
- Ionic bonds are strong electrostatic attractions between oppositely charged ions.
Usage in Cooking:
- Sodium chloride (NaCl) is commonly used in cooking as a seasoning and flavor enhancer.
- It helps to enhance the taste of food by adding a salty flavor.
Conclusion:
- In conclusion, compound 'W' with the formula NaCl contains ionic bonds between sodium and chlorine atoms. These bonds are responsible for the formation of sodium chloride, which is widely used in cooking for its flavor-enhancing properties.

Riddhi patil answered |
Incorrect Statement Explanation:
Electrons orbit the nucleus in fixed, circular paths
- Electrons do not orbit the nucleus in fixed, circular paths as depicted in the Bohr model.
- In reality, electrons exist in regions around the nucleus called electron clouds or orbitals.
- These orbitals represent the probability of finding an electron at a particular location.
- The exact path or trajectory of an electron cannot be precisely determined due to the uncertainty principle in quantum mechanics.
Therefore, option B is incorrect because electrons do not orbit the nucleus in fixed, circular paths.
