8 0

Oxygen, you cannot judge an elements number of protons by its atomic mass, but by the atomic number. the atomic number is 8, thus 8 protons.

A. Oxygen. Oxygen has an atomic mass of 16. The atomic mass of an atom is the combined weight o the protons and neutrons. Since Oxygen's atomic mass is 16, it has 8 protons and 8 neutrons.

An individual is hospitalized and the initial blood work indicates high levels of $HCO_{3} ^{-}$ in the blood and a pH of 7. 47. This would indicate the individual probably has compensated respiratory acidosis.

A chronic illness usually leads to compensated respiratory acidosis because the kidneys have time to adjust to the delayed onset. Even if the $PCO_{2}$ is elevated in a compensated respiratory acidosis, the pH is within the usual range.

The kidneys counteract a respiratory acidosis by increasing the amount of $HCO_{3}$ that tubular cells reabsorb from the tubular fluid, the amount of $H^{+}$ that collecting duct cells secrete while also producing $HCO_{3}$ , and the amount of $NH_{3}$ buffer that is formed through ammoniagenesis.

Respiratory acidosis is frequently brought on by hypoventilation as a result of: breathing depression , paralysis of the respiratory muscles, diseases of the chest wall , abnormalities of the lung parenchyma and abdominal squeezing.

in heating a kettle of water on an electric stove, 3.34×10^3 J of thermal energy was provided by the element of the stove. yet,

insens350 [35]

Answer:

The percentage efficiency of the electrical element is approximately 82.186%

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The thermal energy provided by the stove element, $H_{supplied}$ = 3.34 × 10³ J

The amount thermal energy gained by the kettle, $H_{absorbed}$ = 5.95 × 10² J

The percentage efficiency of the electrical element in heating the kettle of water, η%, is given as follows;

$\eta \% = \dfrac{H_{supplied} - H_{absorbed} }{H_{supplied}} \times 100$

Therefore, we get;

$\eta \% = \dfrac{3.34 \times 10^3 - 5.95 \times 10^2}{3.34 \times 10^3} \times 100 = \dfrac{549}{668} \times 100 \approx 82.186 \%$

The percentage efficiency of the electrical element, η% ≈ 82.186%.

Describe briefly how to obtain the radial probability of an electron

Kaylis [27]

Explanation:

The radial distribution function gives the probability density for an electron to be found anywhere on the surface of a sphere located a distance r from the proton. Since the area of a spherical surface is 4πr2, the radial distribution function is given by 4πr2R(r)∗R(r).

What is the wavelength of light emitted when the electron in a hydrogen atom undergoes transition from an energy level with n =

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

$4.86\times10^{-7}\ \text{m}$

Explanation:

R = Rydberg constant = $1.09677583\times 10^7\ \text{m}^{-1}$

$n_1$ = Principal quantum number of an energy level = 2

$n_2$ = Principal quantum number of an energy level for the atomic electron transition = 4

Wavelength is given by the Rydberg formula

$\lambda^{-1}=R\left(\dfrac{1}{n_1^2}-\dfrac{1}{n_2^2}\right)\\\Rightarrow \lambda^{-1}=1.09677583\times 10^7\left(\dfrac{1}{2^2}-\dfrac{1}{4^2}\right)\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\left(1.09677583\times 10^7\left(\dfrac{1}{2^2}-\dfrac{1}{4^2}\right)\right)^{-1}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=4.86\times10^{-7}\ \text{m}$

The wavelength of the light emitted is $4.86\times10^{-7}\ \text{m}$ .
