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

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>

True or false
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

True.

But it only changes in physical change.

How?

Explanation:

The chemical reaction produces a new substance with new and different physical and chemical properties. Matter is never destroyed or created in chemical reactions. The particles of one substance are rearranged to form a new substance.

In a physical change, a substance's physical properties may change.

A chemical change is a permanent change. A Physical change affects only physical properties i.e. shape, size, etc. ... Some examples of physical change are freezing of water, melting of wax, boiling of water, etc. A few examples of chemical change are digestion of food, burning of coal, rusting, etc.

Hope this helps!

Limestone stalactites and stalagmites are formed in caves by the following reaction: Ca2 (aq) 2HCO−3(aq)→CaCO3(s) CO2(g) H2O(l)
Vesna [10]

Answer : The value of \Delta E for this reaction is 36.18 kJ

Explanation :

First law of thermodynamic : It states that the energy can not be created or destroyed, it can only change or transfer from one state to another state.

As per first law of thermodynamic,

\Delta E=q+w

where,

\Delta E = internal energy  of the system

q = heat added or rejected by the system

w = work done

As we are given that:

q = 38.65 kJ

w = -2.47 kJ (system work done on surrounding)

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

\Delta E=38.65kJ+(-2.47kJ)

\Delta E=36.18kJ

Therefore, the value of \Delta E for this reaction is 36.18 kJ

How many of these transition metals have you heard of before?
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

38 elements or Element 31: Gallium Element 32: Germanium Element 33: Arsenic Element 34: Selenium Element 35: Bromine Element .

Explanation:

How many transition metals are there?

The 38 elements in groups 3 through 12 of the periodic table are called "transition metals". As with all metals, the transition elements are both ductile and malleable, and conduct electricity and heat.
