What observation about light supported Einstein's theory?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Llana [10]3 years ago
5 0

In 1905 Albert Einstein had proposed a solution to the problem of observations made on the behaviour of light having characteristics of both wave and particle theory. From work of Plank on emission of light from hot bodies, Einstein suggested that light is composed of tiny particles called <span>photons, </span>and each photon has energy.

Light theory branches in to the physics of <span>quantum mechanics, </span>which was conceptualised in the twentieth century. Quantum mechanics deals with behaviour of nature on the atomic scale or smaller.

As a result of quantum mechanics, this gave the proof of the dual nature of light and therefore not a contradiction.

In a liquid, the energy required to increase the surface of the area by a unit amount is called :a.dipole-dipole force. b.viscos
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

D. Surface tension.

Explanation:

Surface tension is defined as the energy required to increase the surface area of a liquid by a unit amount.

The surface tension of a liquid results from an imbalance of intermolecular attractive forces, the cohesive forces between molecules:

A molecule in a liquid experiences cohesive forces with other molecules in all directions while molecules at the surface of a liquid experiences only net inward cohesive forces.

Which type of mixture can be separated using a sieve?
DaniilM [7]
FILTRATION When the substances in a mixture have different particle sizes, they are separated by filtration. The mixture is poured through a sieve or filter. The smaller particles slip through the holes, but the larger particles do not.p

how many grams of oxygen gas are needed to produce 10.0 grams of carbon dioxide according to the balanced equation of CH4
Alinara [238K]
Molar mass of :

O2 = 16 * 2 = 32 g/mol

CO2 = 12 + 16 * 2 = 44 g/mol

<span>Balanced chemical equation :
</span>
1 CH4 + 2 O2 = 1 CO2 + 2 H2O
               ↓              ↓
             2 moles     1 mole

2* 32 g O2 ----------> 1* 44 g CO2
     x g O2 ------------> 10.0 g CO2

44 x = 2 * 32*10.0

44 x = 640

x =  \frac{640}{44}

x = 14.54 g of O2

Free Energy
ratelena [41]

Answer:

a) galvanic cell

b)electrolytic cell

c) i) K=6.27x10'34

ΔG°=198790 J

ii) K=3.58x10'-34

ΔG°= 191070 J

d) E°=0.278 v

ΔG°= -26827 J

Explanation:

a) There are two kinds of an electrochemical cell, the first is called "galvanic cells", and the second "electrolytic cell".

The fuel cells are capable of produce electric energy through chemical reactions. These reactions are often spontaneous. So, the galvanic cell has a negative value for Gibbs free energy.

b) The electrolytic cell increases the value of Gibbs energy, to positive values, due to the reactions are not spontaneous.

c) i) look image attached

ii) k = look image attached

ΔG° = -nFE° = - 6 X 95500 J/vmole x (-0.33 v)

ΔG° =-191070

d) E°= 0.0592 v/n x lg K

E°= 0.0592V / 1 X log 5.0X10'4

E°= 0.278 v

ΔG° = -nFE° = -1 x 96500 J/ vmole x 0.278v

ΔG° = -26827 J
