Why the formulas of barium chloride and strontium chloride are similar?
Asked by Wiki User
It is because Barium and Strontium are both elements of same group and have same outer shell configuration of ns2
where n is the principal quantum number or shell number.
Furthermore, they both are bonded to same element.
Hence, the formula of Barium and Strontium Chloride are similar.
What in a microscope uses a beam of visible light passing through one or more lenses to magnify an object?
Asked by Wiki User
No, a beam of electrons is used by an electron scanning microscope. A light microscope uses light waves either reflected off the surface of the object under study, or passed through the object from beneath. Some people might consider a light wave as a type of electron beam, but for the purposes of microscopy, the ESM is capable of far greater magnification than the LM.
