1. What is the name of the element on the illustration above? Why did you say so?
The element in the illustration above is named Hydrogen because the structure of a Hydrogen has
only one electron.

2. What are the subatomic particles (A- green; B- purple) present in the illustration? Briefly
describe each one.
The present subatomic particles in the illustration are Proton and Electron , The Proton is the
subatomic particle A and subatomic particle B is Electron. Proton is a stable positive charge
subatomic particle, while Electron is a stable negative charge subatomic particle.

3. What is the atomic state (C) of the first figure? Explain briefly what is it.

The ground condition of an electron , the energy level it typically possesses, is the condition of most
reduced energy for that electron.

4. Describe briefly what is happening on X. List the processes (X1, X2) that may cause X.

On what I am seeing here is that the photon is being absorbed or combined. The next is the
electron, which is going on an excited state.

5. What is the atomic state (D) of the second figure? Explain briefly what is it.

The atomic state of the second figure or figure D is the excited state. An excited state is a condition
of an actual framework; like a nuclear core, a particle, or an atom; that is higher than the ground
state.

6. Describe briefly what is happening on Y. List the products (Y1, Y2) of this reaction.

What is happening on Y is that the electron is producing photons that leads to slowly going back to
its ground state.

 7. Based on this illustration, describe how light is being generated.

Light is produced or made when a photon is consumed by molecules subsequently it will make the
particle invigorated, and will warm up. The more the hotness the more the photons are created.

D. Analyze the chemical equation, and answer the guide questions below.
A B C D E

C8H7N3O2 + 3H2O2 → C8H5NO4 + N2 + 4H2O

1. Determine the chemical name of all the chemical compounds in the equation and identify the
letters of the chemical compound being used as reactants and products.
Letter A is Luminol, letter B is Sodium percarbonate, letter C is 4-Nitrophenylglyoxal, letter D is
Nitrogen, and lastly, letter E is Beryllium sulfate tetrahydrate. Luminol is used for detection of
copper, iron, and cyanides. Sodium percarbonate is an ingredient in a number of home and
laundry cleaning products. 4-Nitropehnylglyoxal are mainly used in solvents. Nitrogen is
important to the chemical industry and is used to make fertilizers, nitric acid, nylon, dyes and
explosives. Beryllium sulfate tetrahydrate is frequently used in X-ray equipment.

2. Research about how chemical A and B react to give off light. Identify the type of luminescence it
belongs to.
If chemical A and B react it will create a blue light because of its chemical reaction. It is an
example of luminescence. When mixed it will form a molecule that has an excited electronic
state, after that the molecule will shed the extra energy in the form of light. It will glow or emit or
give off light like the tails of the fireflies and also like the glow-sticks that we use on concerts, but
it the color will be blue.

 E. Analyze the retweet screenshot of a Newsmax's White House correspondent below. Research
about the functions and applications of luciferase related to bioluminescence, then refute the
claim of this fake news by explaining using your own words what bioluminescence is, and the
role of luciferase in this process.

Bioluminescence is the light produced by a chemical reaction

with living creatures or organisms, like fireflies, jellyfish, and even
plants. The fact that Luciferases are proteins makes it
communicated with enzymatic movement that, within the sight
of ATP, oxygen, and the fitting substrate, It catalyzes the
oxidation of the substrate in a response that outcomes in the
outflow of a photon. Or in simpler terms to create
bioluminescence you need two chemicals that is Luciferases and
Luciferin. Neither of those chemicals can’t be used to track you,
because the other chemical is an enzyme that produces light
when they oxidize their substrate.

F. Write the exact value of speed of light on the box below.

2 9 9 7 9 2 4 5 8
m/s

*Using this constant value, compute for the following

Travel Time of Light from Sun to Earth- 499 seconds

Travel Time of Light from Earth to Moon- 2.51 seconds

Distance Travelled by Light in Twenty-Four Hours- 25920000000 kilometers

Speed of Parker Solar Probe, Moving at 0. 05 % c- 68.6 km/ s

G. Arrange the electromagnetic light spectrum in the following order

Increasing Frequency- ROYGBIV

Decreasing Wavelength- ROYGBIV

Increasing Speed- ROYGBIV

Decreasing Energy- VIYBGYOR

 H. Fill in the boxes with pictures of technologies on the corresponding light wave.

I. Fill in the blanks below.

All light, regardless of its source, behaves in the same way. In a natural setting, the light that

allows us to see our environment originated at the sun. The light rays travelled through several different

media and then reflected off all of the visible objects in on the way to our eyes.

J. Analyze the graphics below. Describe how light travels from the Sun towards our eyes. Use the
concepts of reflection and refraction in your statement.

Based on my observation, the sun will disperse

the light and it will bounce inside the house,

and it will also refract in the woman’s eyes,

because of the shiny material in the vehicle,

that made the sun reflect and refract its light.

 K. Analyze the graphics below. Describe the mathematical relationship between the distance of the
object to the light source, and the size of the shadow.

The first solid object to the light source has a bigger shadow, whilst the farther the solid object

is the smaller the shadow it creates. Any objects that are opaque or solid objects will cast a

shadow, the basis of how big the shadow will be based on the distance of the object. The

closer the object is to the small light source it will create a bigger shadow than the farther one.

The reason behind that is, the closer the object is to the light source it will block a larger area

of light and increase its shadow size. The farther the object to the light source it will block a

smaller are of light resulting to a smaller shadow size.

“Fermat Principle states that light follows the pathway, with the least amount of time, between
two locations. The simulation on the link uses the analogy of a lifeguard moving from the observation
platform along sand (set the speed on 5.5 m/s), across the boundary into water, and through the water
(set the speed on 1.5 m/s) to reach a drowning swimmer.”

1. Set the contact point (y-axis slider) at point A (0), point B (150), and point C (300). Record the
travel time on each point. Write your answer on the space provided.

Travel Time Using Point A= 21.1556 seconds

Travel Time Using Point B= 22.1879 seconds

Travel Time Using Point C= 28.3951 seconds

2. By using trial and error with y-axis slider, determine the most efficient path for the life guard.
State the y-axis slider setting (Point X), and the travel time on this setting (Point T) on the space
provided.

Point X= 45 ; Point T= 20.7581

3. Relate the result of this activity to the refractive property of light.

The person traveling is quicker to certain materials, and some materials the person is slower.
