The molar mass of the unknown gas is 184.96 g/mol

<h3>Graham's law of diffusion </h3>

This states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass i.e

R ∝ 1/ √M

R₁/R₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

<h3>How to determine the molar mass of the unknown gas </h3>

The following data were obtained from the question:

  • Rate of unknown gas (R₁) = R
  • Rate of CH₄ (R₂) = 3.4R
  • Molar mass of CH₄ (M₂) = 16 g/mol
  • Molar mass of unknown gas (M₁) =?

The molar mass of the unknown gas can be obtained as follow:

R₁/R₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

R / 3.4R = √(16 / M₁)

1 / 3.4 = √(16 / M₁)

Square both side

(1 / 3.4)² = 16 / M₁

Cross multiply

(1 / 3.4)² × M₁ = 16

Divide both side by (1 / 3.4)²

M₁ = 16 / (1 / 3.4)²

M₁ = 184.96 g/mol

If the detector is capturing 3.3×108 photons per second at this wavelength, what is the total energy of the photons detected in
Reil [10]

Answer:

The total energy of the photons detected in one hour is 7.04*10⁻¹¹ J

Explanation:

The energy carried by electromagnetic radiation is displaced by waves. This energy is not continuous, but is transmitted grouped into small "quanta" of energy called photons. The energy (E) carried by electromagnetic radiation can be measured in Joules (J). Frequency (ν or f) is the number of times a wave oscillates in one second and is measured in cycles / second or hertz (Hz). The frequency is directly proportional to the energy carried by a radiation, according to the equation: E = h.f, (where h is the Planck constant = 6.63 · 10⁻³⁴ J / s).

Wavelength is the minimum distance between two successive points on the wave that are in the same state of vibration. it is expressed in units of length (m). In light and other electromagnetic waves that propagate at the speed of light (c), the frequency would be equal to the speed of light (≈ 3 × 10⁸ m / s) between the wavelength :

f=\frac{speed of light}{wavelength}

So:

E=\frac{h*speed of light}{wavelength}

In this case, the wavelength is 3.35mm=3.35*10⁻³m and the energy per photon is:

E=\frac{6.63*10^{-34}*3*10^{8}}{3.35*10^{-3} }

E=5.93*10⁻²³ \frac{J}{proton}

The detector is capturing  3.3*10⁸ photons per second. So, in 1 hour:

E=5.93*10^{-23} \frac{J}{proton} *3.3*10^{8} \frac{proton}{s} *\frac{60}{1} \frac{s}{minute} *\frac{60}{1} \frac{minute}{hr}

E=7.04*10⁻¹¹ \frac{J}{hr}

The total energy of the photons detected in one hour is 7.04*10⁻¹¹ J
