What is the energy of an electromagnetic wave with a frequency of 8 x 10^12

omeli [17]

Answer:

Energy, $E=5.3\times 10^{-21}\ J$

Explanation:

It is required to find the energy of an electromagnetic wave with a frequency of $8\times 10^{12}\ Hz$ . The energy of a wave in terms of its frequency is given by :

$E=h\nu$

$\nu$ = frequency of em wave

$E=6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 8\times 10^{12}\\\\E=5.3\times 10^{-21}\ J$

So, the energy of an electromagnetic wave is $5.3\times 10^{-21}\ J$

What caused the bonding of two atoms which undergo an ionic bond?

kondaur [170]

Since one is negative and one is positive they are held together by their electrostatic attraction to each other, much like how a north and south pole of a magnet attract.

The temperature of 6.24 L of a gas is increased from 25.0°C to 55.0°C at constant pressure. The new volume of the gas is Questio

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Heating this gas to 55 °C will raise its volume to 6.87 liters.

Assumption: this gas is ideal.

Explanation:

By Charles's Law, under constant pressure the volume $V$ of an ideal gas is proportional to its absolute temperature $T$ (the one in degrees Kelvins.)

Alternatively, consider the ideal gas law:

$\displaystyle V = \frac{n \cdot R}{P}\cdot T$ .

$n$ is the number of moles of particles in this gas. $n$ should be constant as long as the container does not leak.
$R$ is the ideal gas constant.
$P$ is the pressure on the gas. The question states that the pressure on this gas is constant.

Therefore the volume of the gas is proportional to its absolute temperature.

Either way,

$V\propto T$ .

$\displaystyle V_2 = V_1\cdot \frac{T_2}{T_1}$ .

For the gas in this question:

Initial volume: $V_1 = \rm 6.24\; L$ .

Convert the two temperatures to degrees Kelvins:

Initial temperature: $T_1 = \rm 25.0\;\textdegree{C} = (25.0 + {\rm 273.15})\; K = 298.15\;K$ .
Final temperature: $T_1 = \rm 55.0\;\textdegree{C} = (55.0 + {\rm 273.15})\; K = 328.15\;K$ .

Apply Charles's Law:

$\displaystyle V_2 = V_1\cdot \frac{T_2}{T_1} = \rm 6.24\;L \times \frac{328.15\; K}{298.15\;K} = 6.87\;L$ .
