2 electrons. it has electron configuration of 2.8.8.2 hence the last 2 will be lost for it to gain stable.

What is the energy of a photon that emits a light of frequency 6.42 x 1014 Hz?<br><br>​
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Option B. 4.25×10¯¹⁹ J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Frequency (f) = 6.42×10¹⁴ Hz

Energy (E) =?

Energy and frequency are related by the following equation:

Energy (E) = Planck's constant (h) × frequency (f)

E = hf

With the above formula, we can obtain the energy of the photon as follow:

Frequency (f) = 6.42×10¹⁴ Hz

Planck's constant (h) = 6.63×10¯³⁴ Js

Energy (E) =?

E = hf

E = 6.63×10¯³⁴ × 6.42×10¹⁴

E = 4.25×10¯¹⁹ J

Thus, the energy of the photon is 4.25×10¯¹⁹ J

The age of fossils can sometimes be determined by radiometric dating, which is based on the constant rate of decay of radioactiv
True [87]
The age of the fossil given the present amount of Carbon-14 is given in the equation,
                               A(t) = A(o)(0.5)^t/h
where A(t) is the current amount, A(o) is the initial amount, t is time and h is the half-life. Substituting the known values to the equation,
                       A(t) / A(o) = 0.125 = (0.5)^(t/5730)
The value of t from the equation is 17190.
Thus, the age of the fossil is mostly likely to be 17190 years old.
