To calculate how many photons are in a certain amount of energy (joules) we need to know how much energy is in one photon.
Start by using two equations:
Energy of a photon = Frequency * Planck's constant (6.626 * 10^(-34) J-s)
Speed of light (constant 3 * 10^8 m/s) = Frequency * Wavelength
Which means:
frequency = Speed of Light / Wavelength
So energy of a photon = (Speed of light * Planck's constant)/(Wavelength)
You may have seen this equation as E = hc/<span>λ</span>
We have a wavelength of 691 nm or 691 * 10^-9 meters
So we can plug in all of our knowns:
E = (6.626 * 10^(-34) J-s) * (3.00 * 10^8 m/s) / (691 * 10^-9 m) = 
2.88 * 10^(-19) joules per photon
Now we have joules per photon, and the total number of joules (0.862 joules)
,so divide joules by joules per photon, and we have the number of photons:
0.862 J/ (2.88 * 10^(-19) J/photon) = 3.00 * 10^18 photons.

How would the electron configuration of nitrogen change to make a stable configuration?
AnnZ [28]

The answers to the questions are as follows;

  1. It would gain three electrons
  2. The difference in their electronegativities.
  3. The elements have filled Valence levels
  4. potassium (K) with a 1+ charge
  5. ClO-

Question 1:

  • How would the electron configuration of nitrogen change to make a stable configuration?

Since Nitrogen has 5 Valence electrons, it needs 3 electrons to attain it's octet configuration. As such, it gains 3 electrons.

Question 2:

  • Which quantity determines how two atoms bond.

The quantity which determines how two atoms bond is The difference in their electronegativities.

Question 3:

  • Which statement best explains why the elements in Group 18 do not have electronegativity values.

This is because the elements have filled Valence levels.

Question 4:

  • Based on patterns in the periodic table, which ion has a stable valence electron configuration

The ion which has a stable Valence electron configuration is potassium (K) with a 1+ charge

Question 5;

  • Which chemical formula represents a polyatomic ion?

The chemical formula which represents a polyatomic ion is; ClO-

Why do solids not diffuse​
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

This is because of diffusion , the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. ... This means that diffusion does not happen in solids – the particles in a solid can only vibrate and cannot move from place to place.
