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.

Calculate the density of oxygen,
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

density of oxygen = 1.307 g/l

Explanation:

given pressure = 1 atm temperature = 298 k

PM=DRT

where p is pressure M is molecular mass D is density R is gas constant and T is temperature

substituting the values in the equation

1\times 32=D\times 0.0821\times 298

D = 1.307 g/l.

Is soil a producer, decomposer, or consumer
barxatty [35]

Plants are the producers — they use the sun's energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into plant material via photosynthesis. ... A producer is a living thing that makes its own food from sunlight, air, and soil. Green plants are producers who make food in their leaves.

A ballon is filled with helium gas. Another balloon, of the same size, is filled with nitrogen gas. Explain why the ratio of the
LenaWriter [7]
Let's say say there are n1 mols of helium in the first balloon and n2 mols of nitrogen in the second one, which are equivalent to m1 grams of helium and m2 grams of nitrogen.

The molar mass of hydrogen is thus M1=m1/n1, same for nitrogen M2=m2/n2 hence the ratio of their masses is m1/m2=(M1n1)/(M2n2). Since both gases are rather similar, we can assume that n1~n2 hence m1/m2=M1/M2
