Answer:

The metal cube lattice is made of only one kind of atom.

Explanation:

As we know that metallic crystals are made up of only one kind of element.  A metal crystal is actually a huge sea of positive charges embedded in the layers of negative charges (electrons). The whole crystal is made up of same kind of atoms, e.g crystals of gold, crystals of iron.

If we talk about structure of metallic crystal, it can be body centered cubic, simple cubic, hexagonal or close cubic packing.

Now, coming towards the ionic crystals, we know that they are basically the crystals of ionic compounds like sodium chloride or cesium chloride. These crystals are formed due to ionic bonding between two or more than two kinds of elements/atoms. It is not possible for an ionic crystal to be composed of only one kind of atom. As far as structure is concerned, they can have different structure based on bonding between atoms in an ionic compound, e.g NaCl has octahedral geometry.

Therefore, it is very evident that best option is A.

A 100-watt light bulb radiates energy at a rate of 100 J/s. (The watt, a unit of power or energy over time, is defined as 1 J/s.
Semmy [17]

Answer

2.7956 * 10^19 photons

Givens

  • Wavelength = λ = 525 * 10^-9 meters  [1 nmeter = 1*10^-9 meters]
  • c = 3 * 10^8 meters
  • E = ???
  • W = 100  watts
  • t = 1 second
  • h= plank's Constant = 6.26 * 10^-34 J*s

Formula

E = h * c / λ

W = E / t

Solution

E = 6.26 * 10^-34 j*s * 3 * 10^8 m/s /525 * 10^-9 (m)

The meters cancel out. So do the seconds. You are left with Joules as you should be.

E =  3.577 * 10^-18 Joules

What you have found is the energy of 1 photon.

Now you have to find the Joules from the watts.

W = E/t

100 * 1 second = 100 joules

1 photon contains 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 Joules

x photon = 100 joules                        

1/x = 3.577 * 10^-18 / 100                          Cross multiply

100 = 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 * x                         Divide both sides by 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18

100/3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 = 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18x / 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18

2.7956 * 10^19 photons = x

How can a Hydrogen atom turn into a<br> Hydrogen ion (H+)?
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

By losing an electron

Explanation:

Electrons have a negative charge. So, losing one would give an element a more positive charge. You can usually find a hydrogen ion (H+) in substances like acids.

The solubility of nitrogen gas at 25 ◦C and 1 atm is 6.8×10−4 mol/L. If the partial pressure of nitrogen gas in air is 0.76 atm,
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Concentration of dissolved nitrogen = 5.2 × 10⁻⁴ mol/L

Explanation:

More the pressure of the gas, more will be its solubility.

So, for two different pressure, the relation between them is shown below as:-

\frac {P_1}{C_1}=\frac {P_2}{C_2}

Given ,  

P₁ = 1 atm

P₂ = 0.76 atm

C₁ = 6.8 × 10⁻⁴ mol/L

C₂ = ?

Using above equation as:

\frac{1\ atm}{6.8\times 10^{-4}\ mol/L}=\frac{0.76\ atm}{C_2}

C_2=\frac{0.76\times 6.8\times 10^{-4}}{1}\ mol/L

<u>Concentration of dissolved nitrogen = 5.2 × 10⁻⁴ mol/L</u>
