soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer: The correct answer is Option 1.

Explanation:

Control group is the group used in the experiment by the researchers in which no change in the variable is done. It is then set as a benchmark for the groups which are being tested.

We are given 4 groups which are being experimented for the flotation of an egg in water. As in Cup 1, there is no addition of salt and hence there is no change in the variables. So, this is set as a benchmark fro the cups which are further used in the experiment conducted.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

Given the following chemical reaction: 2 O2 + CH4 CO2 + 2 H2O What mass of oxygen is required to completely react with 20 grams
Jobisdone [24]
The chemical equation is:
CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

First, we calculate the moles of methane present using:
Moles = mass / molecular mass
Moles = 20 / 16
Moles = 1.25

Next, we may observe from the chemical equation that the molar ratio between methane and oxygen is 1 : 2
So the moles of oxygen required are 2 x 1.25
2.5 moles of oxygen required

Mass = moles * molecular mass
Mass = 2.5 * 32
Moles = 80

The Balmer series, named after Johann Balmer, is a portion of the hydrogen emission spectrum produced from the transitions betwe
horrorfan [7]

Explanation:

The wavelength of the balmer series is calculated using the following steps;

- Find the Principle Quantum Number for the Transition

- Calculate the Term in Brackets

- Multiply by the Rydberg Constant

- Find the Wavelength

The Balmer series in a hydrogen atom relates the possible electron transitions down to the n = 2 position to the wavelength of the emission that scientists observe.

The λ symbol represents the wavelength, and RH is the Rydberg constant for hydrogen, with RH = 1.0968 × 107 m−1

n=7 to n=2

- The principal quantum numbers are 2 and 7.

-  (1/2²) − (1 / n²₂)

For n₂ = 7, you get:

(1/2²) − (1 / n²₂) = (1/2²) − (1 / 7²)

= (1/4) − (1/49)

= 0.2230

- RH = 1.0968 × 107 m−1, to find a value for 1/λ. The formula and the example calculation gives:

1/λ = RH [(1/2²) − (1 / n²₂)]

= 1.0968 × 107 m−1 × 0.2230

= 2445864 m−1

- λ = 1 / 2445864 m−1

= 4.08 × 10−7 m

= 408 nanometers

≈ 410nm

n=6 to n=2

- The principal quantum numbers are 2 and 6.

-  (1/2²) − (1 / n²₂)

For n₂ = 6, you get:

(1/2²) − (1 / n²₂) = (1/2²) − (1 / 6²)

= (1/4) − (1/36)

=  0.2222

- RH = 1.0968 × 107 m−1, to find a value for 1/λ. The formula and the example calculation gives:

1/λ = RH [(1/2²) − (1 / n²₂)]

= 1.0968 × 107 m−1 × 3/16

= 2437090 m−1

- λ = 1 / 2437090 m−1

= 4.10 × 10−7 m

= 410 nanometers

n=5 to n=2

- The principal quantum numbers are 2 and 5.

-  (1/2²) − (1 / n²₂)

For n₂ = 5, you get:

(1/2²) − (1 / n²₂) = (1/2²) − (1 / 5²)

= (1/4) − (1/25)

= 0.21

- RH = 1.0968 × 107 m−1, to find a value for 1/λ. The formula and the example calculation gives:

1/λ = RH [(1/2²) − (1 / n²₂)]

= 1.0968 × 107 m−1 × 0.21

= 2303280 m−1

- λ = 1 / 2303280 m−1

= 4.34 × 10−7 m

= 434 nanometers

n=4 to n=2

- The principal quantum numbers are 2 and 4.

-  (1/2²) − (1 / n²₂)

For n₂ = 4, you get:

(1/2²) − (1 / n²₂) = (1/2²) − (1 / 4²)

= (1/4) − (1/16)

= 0.1875

- RH = 1.0968 × 107 m−1, to find a value for 1/λ. The formula and the example calculation gives:

1/λ = RH [(1/2²) − (1 / n²₂)]

= 1.0968 × 107 m−1 × 0.1875

= 2056500 m−1

- λ = 1 / 2056500 m−1

= 4.86 × 10−7 m

= 486 nanometers

n=3 to n=2

- The principal quantum numbers are 2 and 3.

-  (1/2²) − (1 / n²₂)

For n₂ = 3, you get:

(1/2²) − (1 / n²₂) = (1/2²) − (1 / 3²)

= (1/4) − (1/9)

= 0.13889

- RH = 1.0968 × 107 m−1, to find a value for 1/λ. The formula and the example calculation gives:

1/λ = RH [(1/2²) − (1 / n²₂)]

= 1.0968 × 107 m−1 × 0.13889

= 1523345 m−1

- λ = 1 / 1523345 m−1

= 6.56 × 10−7 m

= 656 nanometers
