Various samples of the must be combusted in other to obtain a reliable result.

<h3>What is a bomb calorimeter?</h3>

The bomb calorimeter is used to obtain the energy of a sample. This is called the energy equivalent or the energy value of the sample.

Now, we know that the bomb calorimeter is calibrated by the use of benzoic acid hence it must be combusted first to obtain the basic energy value of the calorimeter.

Mole - one of the most important concepts in chemistry - is a kind of link to go from the microworld of atoms and molecules in a normal macrocosm grams and kilograms.
In chemistry often have to consider large numbers of atoms and molecules. For fast and efficient calculation made using the weighing method. But it is necessary to know the weight of individual atoms and molecules. In order to identify the molecular weight must be added the weight of all atoms in the compound.

Calcula la densidad de un cuerpo que tiene la masa de 12g y un volumen de 3cm^3 dar el resultado en unidades del SI
kvv77 [185]

The density is 4 g/cm³ or 4000 kg/m³.

Density = mass/volume = 12 g/3 cm³ = 4 g/cm³

The measurement of 4 g/cm³ is already in <em>SI units</em>.  

In SI <em>bas</em>e units,  

Density = (4 g/1 cm³) × (1 kg/1000 g) × (100 cm/1 m)³ = 4000 kg/m³

3. Find the wavelength if the energy of light is 3.36x10 to the -17th power J.
telo118 [61]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.52 × 10⁻¹⁶ nm

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given,

Energy = 3.36 × 10⁻¹⁷ Joules

We are required to find the wavelength of light

We are going to use,

The formula, E = hλ/c

Where E is the energy, λ is the wavelength, h is the plank's constant and c is the speed of light.

h = 6.626 × 10^-34 J-s

c = 2.998 × 10^8 m/s

Working

From the formula;

Wavelength=\frac{Ec}{h}

 = (3.36 × 10⁻¹⁷ J)(2.998 × 10^8 m/s) ÷ 6.626 × 10^-34 J-s

= 1.52 × 10⁻²⁵ meters

Therefore, the wavelength in m is 1.52 × 10⁻²⁵ m

Conversion

We need to convert m to nm

Conversion factor is 10⁹

Therefore;

1.52 × 10⁻²⁵ m to nm

will be; 1.52 × 10⁻²⁵ m × 10⁹

  = 1.52 × 10⁻¹⁶ nm

Thus, the wavelength in nm is 1.52 × 10⁻¹⁶ nm
