The correct option is this: THE FIRST ATOM EMITS LIGHT WITH MORE ENERGY.

In the question given above, the level 1 mentioned in the question refers to the ground state of the electrons while level 2 and level 3 refer to excited states of hydrogen electrons. When an atom is in an excited state, it possess more energy and it is unstable, thus, it tends to return to the ground state after sometime to attain stability. As the atom return to the ground state, it loses its energy by emitting light. The higher the level of excitation, the more the light that will be emitted when the atom is returning to the ground state. Thus, an atom returning to the ground state from level 3 has more energy and will emit more light when returning to the ground state than an electron in level 2.

In which of the following compounds is the mass ratio of chromium to oxygen closest to 1.62 to 1.00?
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter A

Explanation:

Data

Mass ratio 1.62 to 1.00

Atomic mass Cr = 52 g

Atomic mass O  = 16

Process

1.- Calculate the proportion Chromium to Oxygen to each possible solutions

a) CrO₃   =   \frac{52}{16 x 3} = \frac{52}{48} = 1.08

b) CrO₂   =   \frac{52}{16 x 2} = \frac{52}{32} = 1.63

c) CrO     = \frac{52}{16} = 3.25

d) Cr₂O   =  \frac{52 x 2}{16} = \frac{104}{16} = 6.5

a culinary student fills a 40ml container with 37.2 grams of vegetable oil.What is the density of the oil
Lynna [10]

Answer:

<h2>0.93 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

From the question

mass = 37.2 g

volume = 40 mL

We have

density =  \frac{37.2}{40}  \\  = 0.93

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.93 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

What is an air pressure system?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

"The number of air molecules above a surface determines air pressure. As the number of molecules increases, they exert more pressure on a surface, and the total atmospheric pressure increases. By contrast, if the number of molecules decreases, so too does the air pressure."
