The kinetic energy of the emitted electrons of cesium when it is exposed to UV rays of frequency 1.3\times{10^{15}}\;{\text{Hz}} is \boxed{8.614\times10^{-19}\text{ J}}.

Further Explanation:

Photoelectric effect:

When light is made to fall on any substance, electrons are emitted from it. This is known as the photoelectric effect and the emitted electrons are called photoelectrons. The electrons are emitted because of the transference of energy from light to the electrons.

Cesium is a member of the alkali metal group so it is highly reactive and shows the photoelectric effect to the maximum extent. It can remove its electron so easily because of its atomic size. Due to the large atomic size of cesium, its outermost electrons are held very less tightly to the nucleus and therefore removed easily.

According to the Planck-Einstein equation, the energy is proportional to the frequency and is expressed as follows:

{\text{E}}={\text{hv}}                                    …… (1)

Here,

{\text{E}} is the energy.

h is the Plank’s constant.

\nu is the frequency.

The frequency of UV rays 1.3\times{10^{15}}\;{\text{Hz}}is or 1.3\times{10^{15}}\;{{\text{s}}^{-1}}

The value of Planck’s constant is 6.626\times{10^{-34}}\;{\text{J}}\cdot{\text{s}}.

Substitute these values in equation (1)

\begin{gathered}{\text{E}}=\left({6.626\times{{10}^{-34}}\;{\text{J}}\cdot{\text{s}}}\right)\left({1.3\times{{10}^{15}}\;{{\text{s}}^{-1}}}\right)\\= 8.614\times{10^{-19}}\;{\text{J}}\\\end{gathered}

But when electrons are ejected out from the surface of the substance, all of its energy is considered as kinetic energy.

So the kinetic energy of the electrons is {\mathbf{8}}{\mathbf{.614\times1}}{{\mathbf{0}}^{{\mathbf{-19}}}}\;{\mathbf{J}}

Answer:

We know that

ħf = ф + Ekmax  

where  

ħ = planks constant = 6.626x10^-34 J s  

f = frequency of incident light = 1.3x10^15 /s (1 Hz =

1/s)

ф = work function of the cesium = 2.14 eV  

Ekmax = max  kinetic energy of the emmitted electron.  

We distinguish that:

1 eV = 1.602x10^-19 J

So:

2.14 eV x (1.602x10^-19 J / 1 eV) = 3.428x10^-19 J

So,

Ekmax = (6.626x10^-34 J s) x (1.3x10^15 / s) - 3.428x10^-19 J

= 8.6138x10^-19 J - 3.428x10^-19 J = 5.1858x10^-19 J  

Answer:

5.19x10^-19 J  

Kinetic energy:

In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it owns due to its motion. It is defined as the work required accelerating a body of a given mass from rest to its specified velocity. Having expanded this energy during its acceleration, the body upholds this kinetic energy lest its speed changes.

Now consider the reaction a+2b⇌c for which in the initial mixture qc=[c][a][b]2=387 is the reaction at equilibrium? if not, in w
Paul [167]
Solving this chemistry is a little bit hard because the question didn't give some important detailed. 
So first, there are a couple problems with your question. 
We will just need to know which direction will it proceed to reach equilibrium.
Your expression for Kc (and Qc ) for the reaction should be: 
Kc = [C] / [A] [B]^2 
You have not provided a value for Kc, so a value of Qc tells you absolutely nothing. Qc is only valuable in relation to a numerical value for Kc. If Qc = Kc, then the reaction is at equilibrium. If Q < K, the reaction will form more products to reach equilibrium, and if Q > Kc, the reaction will form more reactants.

Over the course of two years the top layer of soil at a Michigan farm is blown away
Colt1911 [192]

For each of the situations below, state whether it describes erosion, weathering, or possibly both.

Answer:

Erosion

Explanation:

The blowing away of the top layer of the soil at a Michigan farm is best described as scenario that shows wind erosion.

Erosion is the removal of the top layer of the earth on which plant grows. In short is the washing away of soil by stream or blowing away by wind.

When soil is blow away, it is a pure case of erosion. The process of erosion usually follows weathering or sometime occurs together with it.

Weathering is the physical disintegration and chemical decomposition of rocks to form sediments and soils.

Often times, the process of weathering and erosion occurs together. It is loose weathering products that are carried away during erosion.

In the soil layer at Michigan, the process of erosion by wind is current taking place by ablation.
