Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When energy is supplied to an electron then on absorption of energy it tends to move from a lower energy level to higher energy level.

And, when this electron moves from higher energy level to lower energy level then excess of energy absorbed by it is released in the form of visible light or radiation.

This emission of energy is also responsible for imparting color to a compound.

Thus, we can conclude that energy is released in the form of radiation occurs when an electron moves from a higher energy shell to a lower energy shell.

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

C) ball rollinflown a hill

Explanation:

The question asks to identify the endothermic process in the list of options. By way of elimination, we have;

A) condensation of water on a wind shield of a car

Condensation is an exothermic process. That is, heat is given out as the gases change into the liquid state of matter.

B) formation of copper

This is an exothermic process. Capture of electrons by a cation is always exothermic.

C) ball rollinflown a hill

This is the correct option. Energy is absorbed by the ball as it moves on the hill

D) formation of ice from liquid water

Freezing is an example of exothermic reaction. Heat is given off to the surroundings.

E) oxide from copper and oxygen

Formation of metal oxides and most reactions involving oxygen are exothermic reactions,

Calculate the solubility of hydrogen in water at an atmospheric pressure of 0.380 atm (a typical value at high altitude).

Pani-rosa [81]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Calculate the solubility of hydrogen in water at an atmospheric pressure of 0.380 atm (a typical value at high altitude).

Atmospheric Gas Mole Fraction kH mol/(L*atm)

$N_2$ $7.81\times 10^{-1}$ $6.70\times 10^{-4}$

$O_2$ $2.10\times 10^{-1}$ $1.30\times 10^{-3}$

Ar $9.34\times 10^{-3}$ $1.40\times 10^{-3}$

$CO_2$ $3.33\times 10^{-4}$ $3.50\times 10^{-2}$

$CH_4$ $2.00\times 10^{-6}$ $1.40\times 10^{-3}$

$H_2$ $5.00\times 10^{-7}$ $7.80\times 10^{-4}$

Answer: The solubility of hydrogen gas in water at given atmospheric pressure is $1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

Explanation:

To calculate the partial pressure of hydrogen gas, we use the equation given by Raoult's law, which is:

$p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=p_T\times \chi_{\text{hydrogen gas}}$

where,

$p_A$ = partial pressure of hydrogen gas = ?

$p_T$ = total pressure = 0.380 atm

$\chi_A$ = mole fraction of hydrogen gas = $5.00\times 10^{-7}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=0.380\times 5.00\times 10^{-7}\\\\p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=1.9\times 10^{-7}atm$

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

$C_{H_2}=K_H\times p_{H_2}$

where,

$K_H$ = Henry's constant = $7.80\times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm$

$p_{H_2}$ = partial pressure of hydrogen gas = $1.9\times 10^{-7}atm$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$C_{H_2}=7.80\times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm\times 1.9\times 10^{-7}atm\\\\C_{CO_2}=1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

Hence, the solubility of hydrogen gas in water at given atmospheric pressure is $1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

What are the products obtained in the electrolysis of molten nai?

yanalaym [24]

Answer is: sodium (Na) and iodine (I₂).

First ionic bonds in this salt are separeted because of heat:
NaI(l) → Na⁺(l) + I⁻(l).

Reaction of reduction at cathode(-): Na⁺(l) + e⁻ → Na(l) /×2.

2Na⁺(l) + 2e⁻ → 2Na(l).

Reaction of oxidation at anode(+): 2I⁻(l) → I₂(l) + 2e⁻.

The anode is positive and the cathode is negative.

Explanation:

With all the scaling up and design improvements, the flight range of the R-7 increased to an intercontinental distance from 330 kilometers for the V-2. The R-7 ended up looking oversized even next to its American contemporaries -- the Atlas and Titan ballistic missiles.
