When light shines through atomic hydrogen gas, it is seen that the gas absorbs light readily at a wavelength of 91.63 nm. What i

s the value of the principal quantum number n of the level to which the hydrogen is being excited by the absorption of light of this wavelength? Assume that the most of the atoms in the gas are in the lowest level. (A) 14 (B) 16 (C) 11 (D) 21

Answer:

D) 21

Explanation:

When gas absorbs light , electron at lower level jumps to higher level .

and the difference of energy of orbital is equal to energy of radiation absorbed.

Here energy absorbed is equivalent to wavelength of 91.63 nm

In terms of its energy in eV , its energy content is eual to

1243.5 / 91.63 = 13.57 eV. This represents the difference the energy of orbit .

Electron is lying in lowest or first level ie n = 1.

Energy of first level

= - 13.6 / 1² = - 13.6 eV.

Energy of n th level = - 13.6 / n². Let in this level electron has been excited

Difference of energy

= 13.6 - 13.6 / n² = 13.57 ( energy of absorbed radiation)

13.6 / n² = 13.6 - 13.57 = .03

n² = 13.6 / .03 = 453

n = 21 ( approx )

Which value is most likely to be the pH of a salt that is formed by the reaction of a strong acid and a weak base?
Mice21 [21]
In a hydrolysis reaction between a strong acid and a weak base, the salt formed will have a pH less than 7. By virtue of this phenomenon between <span>weak bases and strong acids</span>, the anion of the strong acid will fail to attract the hydrogen ion<span>, while the cation from the weak base will donate a </span>proton<span> to the water forming a hydronium ion</span><span>.

A railroad car is pulled through the distance of 960 m by a train that did 578 kJ of work during this pull.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

<h2>602.08 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force supplied by the train can be found by using the formula

f =   \frac{w}{d}  \\

w is the workdone

d is the distance

From the question we have

f =  \frac{578000}{960}  \\  = 602.083333...

We have the final answer as

<h3>602.08 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

What did solomon asch discover in his famous experiment on judging the lengths of lines?
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Asch (1956) found that group size influenced whether subjects conformed. The bigger the majority group (no of confederates), the more people conformed, but only up to a certain point.
