Answer:

Explanation:

Given

wavelength of emissions are

\lambda _1=589 nm

\lambda _2=589.6 nm

Energy is given by

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }

where h=Planck's constant

x=velocity of Light

\lambda=wavelength of emission

E_1=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{589\times 10^{-9}}

E_1=3.374\times 10^{-19} J

E_1 in kJ/mol

E_1=203.2 kJ/mol

frequency corresponding to this emission

\nu =\frac{c}{\lambda }

\nu _1=\frac{3\times 10^8}{589\times 10^{-9}}

\nu _1=5.09\times 10^{14} Hz

Energy corresponding to \lambda _2

E_2=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{589.6\times 10^{-9}}

E_2=3.371\times 10^{-19} J

E_2=203.02 kJ/mol

frequency corresponding to this emission

\nu =\frac{c}{\lambda }

\nu _1=\frac{3\times 10^8}{589.6\times 10^{-9}}

\nu _1=5.088\times 10^{14} Hz

What is the difference between sodium atom and a sodium ion
ludmilkaskok [199]
Pretty much any element(in your case sodium) contain these properties.

Atoms can be an ion, but not all ions are atoms. The difference between an atom and an ion has to do with net electrical charge. An ion is a particle or collection of particles with a net positive or negative charge. ... A stable atom contains the same number of electrons as protons and no net charge

Which of the following represents energy in its most disordered form? Group of answer choices Chemical-bond energy Electromagnet
gavmur [86]

Answer: Heat Energy

Explanation:

Heat is energy in its most disordered form. heat energy is the random jostling of molecules and is therefore not organized. As cells perform the chemical reactions that generate order within, some energy is inevitably lost in the form of heat. Because the cell is not an isolated system, the heat energy produced by the cell is quickly dispersed into the cell's surroundings where it increases the intensity of the thermal motions of nearby molecules. This increases the entropy of the cell's environment and keeps the cell from violating the second law of thermodynamics.
