Electrons are orbiting around the nucleus in a specific energy level as described in Bohr's atomic model. There are 7 energy levels all in all; 1 being the strongest and nearest to the nucleus, and 7 being the weakest and farthest away from the nucleus. Electron can transfer from one energy level to another. If it increases energy, it absorbs energy. If it goes down an energy level, it emits energy in the form of light. This light can be measure in wavelength through the Rydberg equation:

1/λ =R(1/n₁² -1/n₂²), where
λ is the wavelength
R is the Rydberg constant equal to 1.097 × 10⁻7<span> per meter
n</span>₁ and n₂ are the energy levels such that n₂>n₁

In the Paschen series is an emission spectrum of hydrogen when the energy level is at least n=4. So, this covers n=4 to n=7.

1/λ =(1.097 × 10⁻7)(1/4² -1/7²)
λ  = 216.57 ×10⁻⁶ m or 216.57 μm

A typical air sample in the lungs contains oxygen at 100 mmhg, nitrogen at 573 mmhg, carbon dioxide at 40 mmhg, and water vapor
nikdorinn [45]
  it  is  called the  partial pressure   because    it  is    pressure  that   is  exerted by  each gas in  a mixture of  gases if it occupy  the same   volume  of  it  own.  the  the partial pressure  of oxygen  in the air sample above is  100 mm hg, that of  carbon dioxide is 40 mmhg, for   water vapor  47 mmhg. and that of  nitrogen  is 573 mmhg

In a sample containing a mixture of only these gases at exactly one atmosphere pressure, the partial pressures of carbon dioxide
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The pressure of a gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases:

ΣP_g_a_s = P_1+P_2+P_3+...+P_n

The prompt is trying to confuse you, but it actually tells us the pressure of the mixture to be 1 atm, but this can be converted to torr. Furthermore, we are informed only three gases are in the mixture: diatomic nitrogen, diatomic oxygen, and carbon dioxide:

P_g_a_s=1 \ atm = 760 \ torr= P_N_2+P_O_2+P_C_O_2\\760 \ torr = 582.008 \ torr + P_O_2 \ + 0.285 \ torr

Solve for Po2:

P_o_2=(760-582.008-0.285) \ torr = 177.707 \ torr

Thus, the partial pressure of diatomic oxygen is 177.707 torr.

When the temperature of a sample of neon gas increases, what else increases? Distance between the atoms Kinetic energy of the at
Allushta [10]

Answer: Kinetic Energy of the atoms also increases.

Explanation: We are given that the temperature of the gas increases.

Relation between kinetic energy and temperature follows:

K.E._({avg})=\frac{3RT}{2N_A}

where, K = Average Kinetic energy

R = Gas constant

T = Temperature

N_A = Avogadro's number

As seen from the relation above, the Kinetic energy of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature, hence as the temperature increases, kinetic energy of the atom also increases.

MrRa [10]

The condensed structure of given compounds are shown in the below image.

<h3>What is functional group?</h3>

Functional group is the specific group which is present in an organic compound gives information about the properties of that compound.

  • In 1,2-propanediol compound hydroxyl functional group is present on the 1st and 2nd position.
  • In Ethyl methyl ether, ether functional group is present.
  • In Dichloromethane, two atoms of chlorine groups are present.

Hence, structure of the given compounds are shown in the below image.
