C7H16, where C=12.01, and H=1.01, so the weight of the molecule would be 7(12.01)+16(1.01), or 100.23. The percentage of carbon would be found by ((7*12.01)/100.23)*100=83.88% Carbon
((16*1.01)/100.23)*100=16.12% Hydrogen

An atom (not a hydrogen atom) absorbs a photon whose associated wavelength is 300 nm and then immediately emits photon whose ass
KIM [24]

Answer:

The net energy is 2.196 eV

Explanation:

Basically, the energy of an atom increases when it absorbs a photon. In addition, the wavelength of the emitted photon is longer such that the atom absorbed a net energy in the process.

Using:

ΔE = h*c*(1/λ_{1} - 1/λ_{2})

where:

ΔE is the net energy in eV (electron-volt). 1 eV is equivalent to 1.602*10^{-19} J.

h = 4.135*10^{-15} eVs

c = 3*10^{8} m/s

λ_{1} = 300 nm = 300*10^{-9} m

λ_{2} = 640 nm = 640*10^{-9} m

Thus:

ΔE = 4.135*10^{-15} eVs*3*10^{8} m/s*(\frac{1}{300*10^{-9}m } }-\frac{1}{640*10^{-9}m })

ΔE = 4.135*10^{-15}*3*10^{8}*1.77*10^{6} eV = 2.196 eV

Describe how glacial erosion influenced the topography of Ohio.
Marianna [84]

During the past two million years, glaciers have shaped and reshaped the surface of Ohio several times. These continental masses of ice affected as much as two-thirds of the state. Moving from the north and northwest, glaciers have scraped and flattened the landscape. Often more than a mile thick, they smoothed existing hills and filled valleys with enormous amounts of rocks, gravel, and smaller particles.  Through these actions, glaciers have had a very important impact on the agriculture of Ohio. Their activity has been felt in two noticeable ways: shaping the ground upon which people work and build, and forming the soils that cover that ground.
