Explain why pure water has a very slight electrical conductivity.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Pepsi [2]3 years ago
7 0
For electricity to flow there must be a flow of electrons or ions present in a system or medium. When electricity is passed in pure water, oxygen does not have d-orbitals or f-orbitals through which electrons may pass. In pure water there are no electrolytic substance, so no ions present in the pure water. Therefore electricity can not pass through pure water. Additionally; water cannot dissociate into OH- and H+ when electricity is passed through pure water.

A certain shade of blue has a frequency of 7.17 × 1014 hz. what is the energy of exactly one photon of this light?
-Dominant- [34]
Answer is: the energy of exactly one photon of this light is 4.75·10⁻¹⁹ J.
Photon energy equation: E = h·ν.
E - energy of one photon.
ν- frequency.
h - Planck's constant.
ν = 7.17·10¹⁴ Hz.
h = 6.63·10⁻³⁴ J·s.
E = 6.63·10⁻³⁴ J·s · 7.17·10¹⁴ Hz.
E = 4.75·10⁻¹⁹ J.
