A conducting sphere has a net charge of 4.8  1017

Chemistry

vodomira [7]3 years ago

A net charge of the sphere is the overall charge of the sphere. If it says that there are excess electrons, it means that the net charge is negative. Also, the quantity of charge of sub particles are very small so that must be 10 to the power of negative 17. So, I think the net charge is -4.8×10⁻¹⁷ Coulombs.

Then, we use the electrical charge of an electron which is equal to 1.60217662×10⁻¹⁹ C/electron. Therefore,

-4.8×10⁻¹⁷ Coulombs * 1 electron/-1.60217662×10⁻¹⁹ C = 299.592

Therefore, there are approximately 300 excess electrons.

Object A at 40ºC and object B at 80ºC are placed in contact with each other. Which statement describes the heat flow between the
Arada [10]
By the second law of thermodynamics:
Heat can not spontaneously flow from cold regions to hot regions without external work being performed on a system.
Heat transfer is the passage of thermal energy from a hot ( t B = 80° C ) to a colder body ( t A = 40° C ). 
Answer:  B ) Heat flows from object B to object A.

What type of spectrum is produced when electromagnetic radiation is emitted or absorbed as electrons change energy levels in an
mina [271]

When electrons in atom interaction with light or photons one of the two process takes place:

1) they can absorb photons of a characteristic wavelength (which depends on the energy difference between two interacting atomic levels) and get excited to a higher energy level

2) or they can jump to a lower energy level and emit photons of the corresponding wavelength.

The type of spectrum produced when electrons in an atom undergo transitions to various levels by absorbing or emitting photons is termed as atomic spectrum.
