An ultraviolet ray of light has a wavelength of 1.5x10^-8 m. What is the ray's<br> frequency?
frutty [35]

Answer:

2 E16 Hz    or     2 * 10^16 Hz

Explanation:

The formula to determine frequency is f = c / λ.

f = frequency

c = speed of light

λ = wavelength

f = 3E8 / 1.5E-8

f = 2E16

This makes sense because UV light exists roughly

between 8E14 Hz and 3E16 Hz ----- 2E16 Hz falls in that range

2 moles of sodium chloride are dissolved in 8 liters of water. What is its molarity (M) ?
otez555 [7]

Answer:

0.25M

Explanation:

Since molarity is defined as the amount of substance in 1 liter of a solution, and amount in chemistry refers to the number of moles, molarity can be found using the equation below:

Molarity= number of moles ÷ volume in liters

Given: number of moles= 2

Volume= 8L

∴ Molarity of NaCl

= 2 ÷8

= 0.25M

The pH of a solution is measured as 4.5. What is the hydrogen ion concentration of the solution?
Bond [772]

Answer:

[H⁺] =  3.16 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L

Explanation:

Given data:

pH of solution = 4.5

Hydrogen ion concentration = ?

Solution;

pH = -log [H⁺]

we will rearrange this formula:

[H⁺] =  10∧-pH

[H⁺] = 10⁻⁴°⁵

[H⁺] =  3.16 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L

An object has a total mechanical energy of 150 J. At point A, the object has a kinetic energy
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

60 J

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy is neither created nor destroyed, just converted into different forms. This means the total mechanical energy of the object at point A will be the same as the total mechanical energy at point B, and the question tells us the total of that mechanical energy is 150 J. Note we are assuming no energy is lost from the system as heat.

At point B, if the potential energy is 90 J, the remainder of the 150 J total must be kinetic energy. KE = 150 J - 90 J = 60 J.
