Why does helium have more spectral lines than hydrogen?

1 answer:

8 0

This is because Helium has two valence electrons compared to Hydrogen which has only one. Helium has more energy levels for an electron to jump thus more spectral lines to occur. The spectral lines relating to each change of energy level would be more grouped together and hence the greater chance of them falling in the visible range.

Name:

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

1.a) 1 kJ

1.b) 4 kJ

ratio 1:4

1.c) 4 times as before

2.a) 3.33 m/s2

Explanation:

1.a) bicycle's velocity =Displacement/time

=100/20 m/s

=5 m/s

bicycler's KE =1/2 *mass*(velocity)^2

=1/2*80*5^2

=1000 J = 1 kJ

1.b) bicycle's new velocity =200/20 m/s

=10 m/s

bicycler's new KE =1/2*80*10^2

=4000 J = 4 kJ

Ratio= KE 1 :KE new

= 1 :4

1.c) when bicycler's speed was doubled it increased the KE by 4 times (2^2). because In KE we consider the square of the speed , so the factor we increase the speed , the KE will get increased with the square value of it

ex : speed is triple the prior value , then the KE is as 3^2 times as before. that is 9 times

2.a) car acceleration = (20-0)/6 m/s2

= 3.33 m/s2
