Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of components making up the compound. the molecular formula is the actual ratio of components making up the compound.
the empirical formula is CH₂. We can find the mass of CH₂ one empirical unit and have to then find the number of empirical units in the molecular formula.
Mass of one empirical unit - CH₂ - 12 g/mol x 1 + 1 g/mol x 2 = 12 = 14 g
Molar mass of the compound is - 252 .5 g/mol
number of empirical units = molar mass / mass of empirical unit
=
= 18 units
Therefore molecular formula is - 18 times the empirical formula
molecular formula - CH₂ x 18 = C₁₈H₃₆
molecular formula is C₁₈H₃₆
Answer : The energy of the photon emitted is, -12.1 eV
Explanation :
First we have to calculate the orbit of hydrogen atom.
Formula used :
where,
= energy of
orbit
n = number of orbit
Z = atomic number of hydrogen atom = 1
Energy of n = 1 in an hydrogen atom:
Energy of n = 2 in an hydrogen atom:
Energy change transition from n = 1 to n = 3 occurs.
Let energy change be E.
The negative sign indicates that energy of the photon emitted.
Thus, the energy of the photon emitted is, -12.1 eV
