Two hydrogen atoms collide in a head on collision and end up with zero kinetic energy. Each then emits a photon of 121.6 nm (n=2

to n=1 transition). At what speed were the atoms moving before the collision?

Explanation:

Expression for the kinetic energy is as follows.

         K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

Now, total kinetic energy will be as follows.

    K.E = 2 \times \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = m \times v^{2}

Since, this energy converts into electromagnetic radiation of wavelength 121.6 nm.

Relation between energy and photon is as follows.

   Energy of photon = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

                                = \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^{8}}{121.6 \times 10^{-9}}

                                 = 1.63 \times 10^{-18} J

    m \times v^{2} = 1.63 \times 10^{-18}

          v = \sqrt{\frac{1.63 \times 10^{-18}}{1.67 \times 10^{-27}}

             = 3.12 \times 10^{4} m/s

Thus, we can conclude that atoms were moving at a speed of 3.12 \times 10^{4} m/s before the collision.

The relationship between moles and volume, when pressure and temperature of a gas are held constant, is: V/n =
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

If the moles of gas are tripled, the volume must also triple.

Explanation:

According to Avogadro law,

Equal volume of all the gases at same temperature and pressure have equal number of molecules.

The number of moles and volume are directly related to each other. By increasing the number of moles volume also goes to increase with same ratio.

When number of moles decreases the volume also goes to decrease at constant temperature and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V ∝ n

V = Kn

V/n = k

When volume is changed from V₁ to V₂ by changing the number of moles from n₁ to n₂. Then expression will be,

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

When sulfur burns, it forms sulfur dioxide (SO2). Its chemical reaction is S + O2 → SO2.
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The mass of SO2 will be equal to the sum of the mass of S and O2.

Explanation:

This can be explained by the <em>Law of Conservation of Mass</em>. This law states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed. Knowing this, we can say that the reactants of a chemical reaction must be equal to the products.

In this case, the reactants Sulfur (S) and Oxygen (O2) must equal the mass of the product Sulfur Dioxide (SO2). Therefore, the statement <em>"The mass of SO2 will be equal to the sum of the mass of S and O2" </em>is correct.
