Expression for the Balmer series to find the wavelength of the spectral line is as follows:
1 / λ = R (\frac{1}{2^{2} } -  \frac{1}{ n^{2}} )
Where, λ is wavelength, R is Rydberg constant, and n is integral value (4 here →  Fourth level) 
Substitute 1.097 x 10⁷ m⁻¹ for R and 4 for n in the above equation 
1 / λ = (1.097 x 10⁷ m⁻¹) (\frac{1}{2^{2} } -  \frac{1}{4^{2} }  ) 
   = 0.20568 x 10⁷ m⁻¹
λ = 4.86 x 10⁻⁷ m 
since 1 m = 10⁹ nm
λ = 486 nm

What mass of CO was used up in the reaction with an excess of oxygen gas if 24.7g of carbon dioxide is formed? 2 CO + O2 > 2
Zolol [24]
Balance Chemical Equation,
                                      2 CO  +  O₂   →   2CO₂
Acc. to this reaction,
88 g (2 mole) of CO₂ was produced when  =  56 g (2 mole)of CO was reacted
So, 
24.7 g of CO₂ will be produced by reacting =  X g of CO

Solving for X,
                                    X  =  (56 g × 24.7 g) ÷ 88 g

                                    X  =  2.26 g ÷ 88 g

                                    X  =  0.0257 g of CO

Result:           
            0.0257 g of CO is required to be reacted with excess of O₂ to produce 24.7 g of CO₂.

What subatomic particles participate in chemical bonding
Advocard [28]
The subatomic particle involved in chemical bonding is the electron. Electrons are the smallest of all subatomic particles and orbit the nucleus in discrete energy levels called shells. Electrons are negatively charged and the nucleus is positively charged due to the protons.

A small positively charged ball is moved closer to a large, positively charged ball. which describes how the small ball likely r
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

This is just my guess, but since opposites attract, then im guessing that alikes repel each other. So, they will go away from each other when the ball is released (I think).

Explanation:

Hope this helps! If it did, please mark it as brainliest! It would help a lot! Thanks! :D
