Answer:

4.2 × 10⁻¹⁴s⁻¹

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Wavelength of light = 7.1 x 10²nm

We simplify and express this value in metres(m) to give:

⇒7.1 x 10² x 10⁻⁹m = 7.1 x 10⁽⁻²⁺⁹⁾ m

= 7.1 x 10⁷m

The wavelength is 7.1 x 10⁷m

We use the formula V = fλ

We know that Velocity of light is 3 x 10⁸ms⁻¹

Making f, frequency the subject of the formula gives :

f = V/λ

f = 3 x 10⁸ms⁻¹ / 7.1 x 10⁷m

f = 4.2 x 10⁻¹⁴s⁻¹

Manganese forms several oxides when combined with oxygen. One of the oxides (Oxide 1) contains 63.2% of Mn and another oxide (Ox
Nina [5.8K]

Explanation:

Defining law of definite proportions, it states that when two elements form more than one compound, the ratios of the masses of the second element which combine with a fixed mass of the first element will always be ratios of small whole numbers.

A. One of the oxides (Oxide 1) contains 63.2% of Mn.

Mass of the oxide = 100g

Mass of Mn = 63.2 g

Mass of O = 100 - 63.2

= 36.8 g

Ratio of Mn to O = 63.2/36.8

= 1.72

Another oxide (Oxide 2) contains 77.5% Mn.

Mass of oxide = 100 g

Mass of Mn = 77.5 g

Mass of O = 100 - 77.5

= 22.5 g

Ratio of Mn to O = 77.5/22.5

= 3.44

Therefore, the ratio of the masses of Mn and O in Oxide 1 and Oxide 2 is in the ratio 1.72 : 3.44, which is also 1 : 2. So the law of multiple proportions is obeyed.

B.

Oxide 1

Mass of Mn per 1 g of O = mass of Mn/mass of O

= 77.5/22.5

= 3.44 g/g of Oxygen.

Oxide 2

Mass of Mn per 1 g of O = mass of Mn/mass of O

= 77.5/22.5

= 3.44 g/g of Oxygen.

Consider the perbromate anion. What is the central atom? Enter its chemical symbol. How many lone pairs are around the central a
Yanka [14]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The central atom in the perbromate ion is bromine. The chemical symbol of bromine is Br. There are no lone pairs around the central bromine atom. The ion is tetrahedral in shape hence we expect a bond angle of 109°. 27 which is the ideal tetrahedral bond angle. The actual bond angle of the prebromate ion is 109.5°. The perbromate ion is BrO4^-

The observed bond angle is very close to the ideal value because of the absence of lone pairs of electrons from the central atom in the ion.
