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.

Plot your values of ln(Ksp) vs. 1/T and find the slope and y-intercept of the best fit line. Use the equation for the best fit l
labwork [276]

Answer:

a) The slope of the line of best fit plot = -12629.507

b) ΔH∘ = 105 kJ

c) Intercept of the line of best fit plot = 39.099

d) ΔS∘ = 325.1 J/K

e) Option A is correct.

Solubility will increase as temperature increases, because as T increases the (−ΔH∘/RT) term becomes smaller therefore K will get larger.

f) Option D is correct. All of the options are correct.

Explanation:

The complete question is presented in the first attached image to this question. This complete question has the data readings required to plot the graph.

The second attached image has the plotted graph and the regression analysis to obtain the line of best fit.

The equation of the line of best fit obtained is

y = -12629.507x + 39.099

Comparing the given expression for the question with the equation of a straight line

ln (K) = (−ΔH∘/RT) + (ΔS∘/R)

y = mx + c

y = In K

Slope = m = (−ΔH∘/R)

x = (1/T)

Intercept = c = (ΔS∘/R)

So, to answer the question now

a) The slope of the line of best fit plot = -12629.507

b) Slope = (−ΔH∘/R)

(−ΔH∘/R) = -12629.507

But R = molar gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

ΔH∘ = 12629.507 × 8.314 = 105,001.721198 J = 105,002 J = 105 kJ

c) Intercept of the line of best fit plot = 39.099

d) Intercept = (ΔS∘/R)

(ΔS∘/R) = 39.099

ΔS∘ = 39.099 × 8.314 = 325.069086 J/K = 325.1 J/K

e) Do you expect the solubility of Borax to increase or decrease as temperature increases?

Solubility will increase as temperature increases, because as T increases the (−ΔH∘/RT) term becomes smaller therefore K will get larger.

f) Why was it necessary to make sure that some solid was present in the main solution before taking the samples to measure Ksp? Select the option that best explains why.

A. To make sure no more sodium borate would dissolve in solution.

B. To ensure the dissolution process was at equilibrium.

C. To make sure the solution was saturated with sodium and borate ions.

D. All of the above

Hope this Helps!!!

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.
