Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

Using Rydberg's Equation for hydrogen atom:

\bar{\nu}=\frac{1}{\lambda}=R_H\left(\frac{1}{n_i^2}-\frac{1}{n_f^2} \right )

Where,

\bar{\nu} = Wave number

\lambda = Wavelength of radiation

R_H = Rydberg's Constant

n_f = Higher energy level

n_i= Lower energy level

We have:

n_f=5, n_i=3

R_H=1.096776\times 10^7 m^{-1}

\frac{1}{\lambda}=1.096776\times 10^7 m^{-1}\times \left(\frac{1}{3^2}-\frac{1}{5^2} \right )

\frac{1}{\lambda}=1.096776\times 10^7 m^{-1}\times \frac{16}{225}

\lambda =1.2822\times 10^{-6} m=1282.2 nm\approx 1282 nm

(1 m= 10^9 nm)

The wavelength of the photon emitted when the hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from n = 5 to n = 3 is 1282 nm.

Gabriella weighs 450 N. She climbs a flight of stairs to a height of 3 m. It takes her 5 seconds. How much work does Gabriella d
Flura [38]

The formula that can be applied in this problem is W = Fd where W is work, F is the force and d is distance. You have 450N and 3m, all you have to do is to multiply it.

W = Fd

W = (450N) (3m)

W = 1350J

The answer is letter C.

A solution contains 6.21 g of ethylene glycol dissolved in 25.0 g of water. If water has a boiling point elevation constant of 0
timurjin [86]
Calculate first the number of moles of ethylene glycol by dividing the mass by the molar mass.
                           n = (6.21 g ethylene glycol) / 62.1 g/mol
                              n = 0.1 mol
Then, calculate the molality by dividing the number of moles by the mass of water (in kg).
                           m = 0.1 mol/ (0.025 kg) = 4m
Then, use the equation,
                       Tb,f = Tb,i + (kb)(m)
Substituting the known values,
                       Tb,f = 100°C + (0.512°C.kg/mol)(4 mol/kg)
                          <em>Tb,f = 102.048°C</em>

Calculate the mass of nitrogen dissolved at room temperature in an 95.0 LL home aquarium. Assume a total pressure of 1.0 atmatm
harina [27]

Answer:

86.3 g  of N₂ are in the room

Explanation:

First of all we need the pressure from the N₂ in order to apply the Ideal Gases Law and determine, the moles of gas that are contained in the room.

We apply the mole fraction:

Mole fraction N₂ = N₂ pressure / Total pressure

0.78 . 1 atm = 0.78 atm → N₂ pressure

Room temperature → 20°C → 20°C + 273 = 293K

Let's replace data: 0.78 atm . 95L = n . 0.082 . 293K

(0.78 atm . 95L) /0.082 . 293K = n

3.08 moles = n

Let's convert the moles to mass → 3.08 mol . 28g /1mol = 86.3 g

YOU MUST SHOW ALL STEPS OF THE G.U.E.S.S. METHOD CORRECTLY. NO UNITS=WRONG ANSWER
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

The equation for wave speed can be used to calculate the speed of a wave when both wavelength and wave frequency are known. Consider an ocean wave with a wavelength of 3 meters and a frequency of 1 hertz. The speed of the wave is: Speed = 3 m x 1 wave/s = 3 m/s.

SO... take your meters and hezert and do tha same
