A) can focus very rapidly as pictures change B) is quicker than the brain
C) can see 2 images separated only if the interval betwen seeing them is more than one-tenth of a second D) can shut out some of the light
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) can see 2 images separated only if the interval betwen seeing them is more than one-tenth of a second

Explanation:

The eye can see images separately only if they are exhibited at an interval of more than 1/10 of a second. In the case of a movie, the still pictures come one after the other at less than this minimum interval. So we do not see them separately but only as a continuous moving picture.

Which of the following is not soluble in water?

A) copper(II) hydroxide B) sodium chloride
C) silver nitrate D) potassium sulfate
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) copper(II) hydroxide

Explanation:

Sodium chloride:

The solubility rules tell you that all halides are soluble with the exception of those formed with siver, mercury, and lead ions. Since this is not the case here, sodium chloride will be soluble.

 

Silver nitrate:

It is soluble because all nitrates are soluble, without exception.

 

Potassium sulfate:

It is soluble because all sulfates are soluble with the exception of those formed with silver, calcium, barium, mercury, lead, and strontium ions.

 

Copper (II) hydroxyde:

It is insoluble because all hydroxides are insoluble with the exception of those formed with alkali metal ions and barium.
