The formula to be used for this problem is as follows:

E = hc/λ, where h is the Planck's constant, c is the speed of light and λ is the wavelength. Also 1 aJ = 10⁻¹⁸ J

0.696×10⁻¹⁸ = (6.62607004×10⁻³⁴ m²·kg/s)(3×10⁸ m/s)/λ
Solving for λ,
λ = 2.656×10⁻⁷ m or <em>0.022656 nm</em>

calculate how many Liters of 0.50 M silver nitrate solution you will need to provide the 2.4x10^-3 moles of silver nitrate
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

4.8x10⁻³ Liters are required

Explanation:

Molarity is an unit of concentration in chemistry defined as the ratio between moles of solute (In this case, silver nitrate) and liters of solution.

The 0.50M solution contains 0.50 moles of silver nitrate per liter of solution.

To provide 2.4x10⁻³ moles Silver nitrate are required:

2.4x10⁻³ moles * (1L / 0.50 moles) =

<h3>4.8x10⁻³ Liters are required</h3>

Assume that the maximum number of ATPs is produced (38). At pH 7, and in the presence of excess Mg2 , how much of the energy in
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

In one mole of glucose 38 ATP energy is stored this accounts for only 40 per-cent of the total energy in glucose.

Explanation:

In standard conditions, during the cellular respiration 1 mole of Glucose in the presence of oxygen produces 36 or 38 ATPs. This accounts for only 40% of the total energy as the remaining 60 per-cent of the energy is dissipated as heat.

I mole of glucose enters the glycolysis step of aerobic cellular respiration which after oxidative phosphorylation and Electron transport chain would give 38 ATP molecules.

It can be said that only 38.3% of energy is put in ATP molecules.

Which of the following is true of solids?
Over [174]
<span>Answer: B. Ionic solids have higher melting points than molecular solids.
</span>
This is because the rest are false, as solids are able to melt, and do have melting points. Also, not all solids have the same melting points.

Why is the air in a jet aircraft flying at high altitudes pressurized? *
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Aircraft cabins are therefore pressurized to maintained a similar pressure as that experienced at sea level to ensure normal breathing of passengers.

Explanation:

-Air becomes increasingly thinner with increasing altitudes.

-As such, oxygen becomes limited at higher altitudes and makes it difficult or almost impossible to breath  a condition called hypoxia.

-Aircraft cabins are therefore pressurized to maintained a similar pressure as that experienced at sea level to ensure normal breathing of passengers.
