An atom in an excited state contains more of what type of energy than the same atom in the ground state

Chemistry
1 answer:
LenaWriter [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Total Energy of the electrons

Explanation:

An atom in an excited state is when the total energy of electrons can be lowered by transferring molecule(s) over to different orbitals. in an excited state atom, not all electrons are at the lowest energy levels

True or false: environmental science concentrates on the study of earth's natural hazards.
algol [13]

The correct answer for this question is 'False'

Environmental science is not the study of the earth's natural hazards

What is Environmental science?

Environmental Science is the study of physical, chemical, biological components of earth's natural environment they include air, water etc.,

The Environmental science closely studies the human impact on the earth's environment.

This field of science also helps us to know about how science effects our environment.

And the 3 main aspects of Environmental science are:

To understand the interaction between humans and environment

To understand how natural world works

To Find a way to deal with the environmental problems to live sustainably.

C (graphite) is used as a lubricant, whereas C (diamond) is used as an abrasive. Why is this?
zysi [14]

Answer:

Carbon atoms in graphite and diamond are arranged in different ways. Hence, the two allotropes of carbon have different physical properties.

Explanation:

Both graphite and diamond are both made of only carbon atoms. However, their physical properties differ from each other. Hence, they are called allotropes. Think about how these carbon atoms are arranged in each of the allotropes.

<h3>Graphite</h3>

In graphite, each carbon atom is bonded to three other carbon atoms. These carbon atoms will be located in the same plane. A chunk of graphite can contain many of these planes.

Each carbon atom has four valence electrons. Three of these electrons will be used in the bonds. The other electron will be delocalized. These electrons would flow between the sheets of carbon atoms. That keeps the sheets separate and allow them to slide on top of each other.

<h3>Diamond</h3>

In diamond, each carbon atom is bonded to four other carbon atoms. These carbon atoms will form a tetrahedral network.  

In graphite, there's a significant separation between two adjacent sheets of carbon atoms. The force between the two sheets is rather weak. When a piece of graphite is between two objects that move over one another, the layers in the graphite would also slide over one another. Since the attraction between two adjacent sheets isn't very strong, there wouldn't be much resistance. Hence the graphite acts as a lubricant.  

In contrast, most of the carbon atoms in a piece of diamond would be connected to each other. Unlike the sheets in graphite, in a diamond there are almost no moving parts. Also, the forces between neighboring carbon atoms are very strong. When an external force acts on a chunk of diamond, the carbon atoms would barely move. Hence, the structure appears to be very rigid. That gives diamond its abrasive properties.

A gas occupying a volume of 656.0 mL at a pressure of 0.884 atm is allowed to expand at constant temperature until its pressure
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

1.14 × 10³ mL

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Initial volume of the gas (V₁): 656.0 mL
  • Initial pressure of the gas (P₁): 0.884 atm
  • Final volume of the gas (V₂): ?
  • Final pressure of the gas (P₂): 0.510 atm

Step 2: Calculate the final volume of the gas

If we assume ideal behavior, we can calculate the final volume of the gas using Boyle's law.

P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂

V₂ = P₁ × V₁/P₂

V₂ = 0.884 atm × 656.0 mL/0.510 atm = 1.14 × 10³ mL

Why alcohols have high boiling point​
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The hydroxyl groups in alcohol molecules are responsible for hydrogen bonding between the alcohol molecules. As greater energy is required to overcome these strong intermolecular forces, the melting points and boiling points of alcohols are higher than those of alkanes with a corresponding chain length
