<u>Answer:</u> The diameter of helium atom is 0.1 nm.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Diameter of helium atom = 1.0\times 10^{-13}km

To convert this diameter from kilometers to nano meters, we use the conversion factor:

1km=10^{12}nm

Converting the above diameter into nano meters, we get:

\Rightarrow (1.0\times 10^{-13}km)\times (\frac{10^{12}nm}{1km})\\\\\Rightarrow 0.1nm

Hence, the diameter of helium atom is 0.1 nm

Answer:

Diameter He = 0,1 nm.

Explanation:

Km to nm:

⇒ Diameter He = 1.0 E-13 Km * ( 1000 m / Km ) * (  1 E9 nm / m )

⇒ Diameter He = 0.1 nm

Calculate the energy for one mole of photons (an einstein) for light absorbed at 6.90 × 102 nm.
Kay [80]
We know that:
f * λ = c 
<span>and
E = h*f
so,rearranging:
 </span> 
<span>E/h = C/λ 
given:
h = </span><span>6.90 × 10^2 nm

</span><span>substituting the values:

E = </span> C/λ<span> x h  
(c is the speed of light;that is 3x10^8 m/s)

</span>    = 3x10^8 x 6.626x10^-34 / 6.90 x10^7m x 6.022x10^23
Hence,
using calculator:
we get,
 E = 1.69 x 10^5 Joules

2H2 + O2- 2H20
tankabanditka [31]

Conversion factor : molar mass/molecular weight

Mass of H₂O produced = 72 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

2H2 + O2- 2H20

8 grams of H2

Required

Conversion factors

Solution

We can use the molar mass of the components and the mole ratio as conversion factors for the above equation

mol H₂ (MW = 2 g/mol) :

\tt mol=\dfrac{8}{2}=4~mol

From the equation, mol ratio of H₂ : H₂O = 2 : 2, so mol H₂O = 4 mol

mass H₂O(MW = 18 g/mol) :

mass = mol x MW

mass = 4 x 18

mass = 72 g
