A line in the lyman series of hydrogen has a wavelength of 122 nm. from what state did the electron originate?

1 answer:

4 0

Lyman series is when the electron transitions from n≥2 to n=1. So, for the Lyman series, the Rydberg formula becomes

1/λ = R(1 - 1/n²)
where λ is the wavelength and R is the Rydberg constant for hydrogen (0.010972 nm⁻¹)

1/122 = 0.010972(1 - 1/n²)
Solving for n,
n = 1.988≈2

<em>Thus, the electron originated from the 2nd energy level.</em>

What is the percent composition each element in c6h8o6

QveST [7]

Answer:

Percentage of oxygen = 30%

Percentage of carbon = 30%

Percentage of hydrogen = 40%

Explanation:

Formula:

Percentage of element = given amount / total amount × 100

Given compound:

C₆H₈O₆

Number of atoms of carbon = 6

Number of atoms of hydrogen = 8

Number of atoms of oxygen = 6

Total number of atoms = 20

Percentage of carbon = 6/20 × 100

Percentage of carbon = 30%

Percentage of Hydrogen = 8/20 × 100

Percentage of Hydrogen = 40%

Percentage of oxygen = 6/20 × 100

Percentage of oxygen = 30%

NaCl has a mc020-1.jpgHfus = 30.2 kJ/mol. What is the mass of a sample of NaCl that needs 732.6 kJ of heat to melt completely?

lilavasa [31]

Answer: The mass of the sample will be 1417.7 grams.

Explanation:

We are given:

$\Delta H_{fusion}=30.2kJ/mol$

This means that 1 mole of NaCl has an enthalpy of fusion of 30.2 kJ

1 mole of NaCl has a mass of 58.44 grams.

So, 30.2 kJ of heat is require for a mass 58.44 grams of NaCl

So, 732.6 kJ of heat will be required for = $\frac{58.44g}{30.2kJ}\times 732.6 kJ$ = 1417.65 grams of NaCl.

Hence, the mass of NaCl sample will be 1417.7 grams.

A liquid-fueled rocket engine has two liquids, usually called the fuel and the oxidizer. Which two liquids are most commonly use

hammer [34]

Answer:

A liquid-fueled rocket has two liquids (liquids are good because of the density, they need less space than a gas to be stored), such that these liquids are called the fuel and the oxidizer.

These liquids are injected into a system that leads to a combustion chamber, where the liquids are mixed (we need to mix the fuel with the oxidizer to enable the combustion of the fuel) and burned to produce thrust.

Some common examples of oxidizers are liquid oxygen, which may be combined with fuels like liquid hydrogen, liquid methane, kerosene and hydrazine.

Other oxidizers are liquid fluorine (which also can be combined with the fuels liquid hydrogen and hydrazine), nitrogen tetroxide (which can be combined whit kerosene, hydrazine and other fuels) and FLOX-70, which can only be combined with kerosene.

The "most commonly used" may depend on the country and the type of liquid propellant ( petroleum, cryogens, and hypergols)

Such that the most common oxidizer may be liquid oxygen, and the most common fuel the kerosene.

Please Help 8-9!!!!!!!

seropon [69]

The labeled diagram is given in the image attached.

As it can be seen from the image that freezing is when energy is removed from the system at 0 ⁰ while melting is when energy is added at 0⁰.

Also when energy is added at 100⁰C, it causes boiling while when it is removed at 100⁰C, it causes condensation.

Melting point of water is 0⁰C while boiling point is 100⁰C
