The wavelength of the photon is  1026  Å

Rydberg unit of energy corresponds to the energy of the photon whose wave number is Rydberg constant.

The value for the rydberg constant is 10 973 731.6 m-1

The formula for the rydberg constant for hydrogen is

1 / λ = Rh (1 / n1^2 - 1 / n2^2)

where Rh is the Rydberg constant

For the transition of an electron in a hydrogen atom from n = 1 to n = 3

1 / λ = Rh (1 / 1^2 - 1 / 3^2)

1 / λ = Rh (0.888)

λ = 1.126 / Rh

λ = 1.126 /  10 973 731.6

   = 1.026 * 10^-7

   = 1026  Å

Hence, the wavelength of the photon is  1026  Å

Calculate the pH of a 0.30 M NaF solution. The Ka value for HF is 7.2*10^-4
Licemer1 [7]
We are given with the equilibrium constant of acid, HF and is asked to calculate the pH of 0.30 M NaF solution. The formula to be followed is 
Ka = [H+][F-]/[HF]Ka = 7.2 x 10 -4 = x^2/[0.3-x]x = [H+]= pH = -log (H+) = 1.84

a sample of sucrose was burned in a calorimeter, and 41,600 joules oh heat energy were released. which statement is true about t
Gala2k [10]

It absorbed 41,600 joules.

Explanation:

If the sample of sucrose burnt in the calorimeter releases 41600Joules of heat, then the water in the calorimeter will absorb 41600J.

 The heat lost by burning the sucrose in the calorimeter is also the heat gained by the water therein.

A calorimeter is a device by prevents heat loss to the environment in any form.

It is specially designed to minimize heat loss by conduction, convection radiation.

Therefore, since no heat is lost, the heat released by burning the sucrose is used in heating the water there.

3. If all the waves were measured for a period of 5 seconds, which wave had the highest frequency?
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Correct answer is A.

Explanation:

Frequency is the number of oscillations that a wave have per unit time. Since time is measured in seconds, the wave with the highest frequency must register the highest number of oscillation per second. Hence, correct answer is A.

A container with a volume 2. 0 L is filled with a gas at a pressure of 1. 5 atm. By decreasing the volume of the container to 1.
worty [1.4K]

The resulting pressure of the gas after decreasing the initial volume from 2 L to 1 L is 3 atm.

<h3>What is Boyle's Law?</h3>

According to the Boyle's Law at constant temperature, pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of that gas.

For the given question we use the below equation is:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂, where

P₁ = initial pressure of gas = 1.5 atm

V₁ = initial volume of gas = 2 L

P₂ = final pressure of gas = ?

V₂ = final volume of gas = 1 L

On putting all these values on the above equation, we get

P₂ = (1.5atm)(2L) / (1L) = 3 atm

Hence required pressure of the gas is 3 atm.
