The wavelength of the radiation is 4.7 x 10⁻⁹ m

What is the Einstein's Formula for Energy?

The energy

E is given, from Einstein's formula, as:

E=h⋅ν

Where:

h=6.63×10⁻³⁴Js is Planck's constant;

ν is the frequency.

You can relate frequency and wavelength

λ through the speed of light c as:

c=λ⋅ν

So finally you get:

E=hc/λ

It is given in the question

The energy of a photon is 4.23 x 10⁻¹⁷ J.

Wavelength = ?

λ = hc/E

λ = 6.63×10⁻³⁴x 3 x 10⁸ / 4.23 x 10⁻¹⁷

λ = 4.7 x 10⁻⁹ m

Therefore the wavelength of the radiation is 4.7 x 10⁻⁹ m .

The thin outer layer of Earth, called the crust, contains only 0.50 percent of Earth's total mass and yet is the source of almos

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The mass of silicon in kilograms in Earth's crust is $7.2729\times 10^{21} kg$ .

Explanation:

Mass of Earth = $5.9\times 10^{21} tons$

(1 ton= 2000 lb)

(1 lb =453.6 g)

1 ton = 2000 × 453.6 g =907,200 g

Mass of Earth = $5.9\times 10^{21}\times 907,200 g=5.3524\times 10^{27} g$

Percentage of earth crust = 0.50%

Mass of earth crust = M

$0.50\%=\frac{M}{5.3524\times 10^{27}}\times 100$

$M=2.6762\times 10^{25} g$

Percentage of the silicon in Earth's crust = 27.2 %

Mass of silicon in in Earth's crust = m

$Si\%=\frac{m}{M}\times 100$

$27.2\%=\frac{m}{2.6762\times 10^{25} g}\times 100$

$m = 7.2792\times 10^{24} g=7.2729\times 10^{21} kg$

1000 g = 1 kg

The mass of silicon in kilograms in Earth's crust is $7.2729\times 10^{21} kg$ .

What compound is formed when 2,2-dimethyloxirane (2-methyl-1,2-epoxypropane) is treated with ethanol containing sulfuric acid

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

2-ethoxy-2-methylpropan-1-ol

Explanation:

On this reaction, we have an "epoxide" (2-methyl-1,2-epoxypropane). Additionally, we have acid medium (due to the sulfuric acid $H_2SO_4$ ). The acid medium will produce the hydronium ion ( $H^+$ ). This ion would be attacked by the oxygen of the epoxide. Then a carbocation would be produced, in this case, the most stable carbocation is the tertiary one. Then an ethanol molecule acts as a nucleophile and will attack the carbocation. Finally, a deprotonation step takes place to produce 2-ethoxy-2-methylpropan-1-ol.

A sample of gas occupies 300 mL at 100K. What is its volume when the

iris [78.8K]

If the temperature of the sample of gas increases to the given value, the volume also increases to 600mL.

<h3>What is Charles's law?</h3>

Charles's law states that "the volume occupied by a definite quantity of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.

It is expressed as;

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

Given the data in the question;

Initial temperature of gas T₁ = 100K

Initial volume of gas V₁ = 300mL

Final temperature T₂ = 200K

Final volume V₂ = ?

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁T₂ / T₁

V₂ = ( 300mL × 200K ) / 100K

V₂ = 60000mLK / 100K

V₂ = 600mL

Therefore, if the temperature of the sample of gas increases to the given value, the volume also increases to 600mL.

When electrons are filling energy levels, the lowest energy sublevels are occupied first. This is ____________.

Nimfa-mama [501]

When electrons are filling energy levels, the lowest energy sublevels are occupied first. This is Hund's rule.

Hund's rules state that:

Every orbital in a sublevel has to be singularly occupied before any other orbital is able to be doubly occupied.

All of the electrons in single occupied orbitals have to have the same spin to maximize the total spin.

Two German chemists, Justus von Liebig (1803–1873) and Friedrich Wöhler (1800–1882), were responsible for the emergence of organic chemistry in the early nineteenth century. Their quantitative analytical methods helped establish the constitution of newly isolated and synthesized carbon compounds.
