The light ray is reflected when it his a mirror.

The light ray reflects off the mirror.
The direction of the light ray is determined like this:

pretend there is a perpendicular plane to the mirror at where the light strikes the mirror. the light ray is reflected relative to the perpendicular plane, reflecting it across that line/plane.

Why sometimes the electrons of an atom transfer to higher energy level

Elenna [48]

Answer:

According to Bohr, the amount of energy needed to move an electron from one zone to another is a fixed, finite amount. ... The electron with its extra packet of energy becomes excited, and promptly moves out of its lower energy level and takes up a position in a higher energy level. This situation is unstable, however.

Calculate the maximum numbers of moles and grams of H₂S that can form when 158 g of aluminum sulfide reacts with 131 g of water:

Phantasy [73]

What is Chemical Reaction?

A chemical reaction is the chemical transformation of one set of chemical components into another.

Main Content

Mass of aluminium sulfide is 158g

Mass of water is 131g

The chemical reaction: $Al_{2}S_{3} +H_{2}O _\to Al(OH)_{3} + H_{2}S$

First, balance the chemical equation

$Al_{2}S_{3} + 6H_{2}O \to 2Al(OH)_{3} + 3H_{2}S$

Aluminium sulfide has a molar mass of 150.16 g/mol and water has a molar mass of 18.02 g/mol. As a result, the moles of aluminum sulfide are computed as follows:

$n_{Al_{2}S_{3} } = \frac{Mass}{Molar mass}\\n_{Al_{2} S_{3} } = \frac{158g}{150.16g/mol} \\n_{Al_{2}S_{3} }=1.05 mol$

From the chemical reaction , the ratio of molar is 3mol $H_{2}S/1 mol Al_{2}S_{3}.$ So, the moles of hydrogen sulfide are:

$n_{H_{2} O} =\frac{131g}{18.02g/mol}$

= 7.26mol

From the chemical reaction, the molar ratio is 3 mol $H_{2}S/6$ mol $H_{2}O.$ So, the moles of hydrogen sulfide are:

Moles of $H_{2}S$ formed = 7.26 mol $H_{2}O \times \frac{3 mol H_{2}S }{6 mol H_{2} O} }$

Th liming reactant is $Al_{2}S_{3}$ beacuse the mass of $Al_{2}S_{3}$ forms less product than water. Therefore, the maximum number of moles of $H_{2}S$ is 3.15 mol. We know that molar mass of $H_{2}S$ is 34.10g/mol. So, the maximum mass of $H_{2}S$ formed is,

$m_{H_{2}S } = n_{H_{2}S } \times$ Molar mass of $H_{2}S$

= 3.15 mol $\times$ 34.10g/mol

= 107.4g

Now, multiplying the number of moles of $Al_{2}S_{3}$ by the molar ratio between $Al_2S_3$ and $H_2O$ which is 6mol $H_2O/1mol$ $Al_2S_3$ we get the number of moles of $H_2O$ reacted.
