Answer :  The energy released by an electron in a mercury atom to produce a photon of this light must be, 4.56\times 10^{-19}J

Explanation : Given,

Wavelength = 435.8nm=435.8\times 10^{-9}m

conversion used : 1nm=10^{-9}m

Formula used :

E=h\times \nu

As, \nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}

So, E=h\times \frac{c}{\lambda}

where,

\nu = frequency

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

\lambda = wavelength = 435.8\times 10^{-9}m

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^8m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

E=(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times \frac{(3\times 10^{8}m/s)}{(435.8\times 10^{-9}m)}

E=4.56\times 10^{-19}J

Therefore, the energy released by an electron in a mercury atom to produce a photon of this light must be, 4.56\times 10^{-19}J

How many formula units of CaO are in 32.7 g of CaO?
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

3.51× 10²³ formula units

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CaO = 32.7 g

Number of formula units = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the number of moles.

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 32.7 g/ 56.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.583 mol

Number of formula units:

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ formula units

0.583 mol ×  6.022 × 10²³ formula units / 1 mol

3.51× 10²³ formula units

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

Chemistry omg need help plz I need plz. I real badly at it and try to get better but plz help me
Rufina [12.5K]
We all struggle in some subjects, you do badly when you don't try, and sometimes we try and can't get the answer, I'll help with that. :)

The first answer is CO2(g), CO2 is a gas, and all gas have... 4) No definite shape, no definite volume.

A piece of ice, a block of wood, and a ceramic cup are solids. They have shapes that do not change and volumes that can be measured. Any matter that is a solid has a definite shape and a definite volume.

A liquid takes the shape of what holds it, besides a flat surface, which will just evidently, take the shape of a flat surface. A liquid has a definite volume, because the volume of a liquid is constant because forces of attraction keep the particles loosely together.

Gases attempt to fill a container of any shape or size. Therefore, it has no definite shape.
There are forces of attraction among the particles in all matter, therefore, it has no definite volume.

The second question might become easier with the explanation above. A liquid has a definite volume because the forces of attraction are loosely together! Therefore, it has a definite volume, but it will take the shape of it's container.

This means... Yes! 2) It retains its original volume but changes shape.

This one is easy. To convert one gram of a solid at its normal heating point to a liquid at the same temperature, is the 1) Heat of Vaporization.

Heat of Vaporization is the amount of heat energy required to convert one gram of a substance from a liquid to a gas.

The third question, the molecules for H20, in a solid phase are always in an geometric and arranged pattern.

Most solids are arranged in geometric and arranged patterns, and since H20 is not in its indefinitely shaped liquid phase, it has a definite shape and thus, retains a repeating (geometric) pattern.

(Note- Some solids like wax or rubber do not have an arranged or geometric pattern.)

The “average of a kinetic energy” is defined as the vitality of movement of particles of a framework.

Or in simpler terms, “energy motion”.

So when temperature increases, the average kinetic energy of a molecule(s) 1) increases.

Complete the three words. The oxidation state tells you how many electrons an atom has g....................... , l.............
fgiga [73]

Answer:Gained, Lost , Shared

Explanation:

The oxidation state tells you how many electrons an atom has GAINED.................. , LOST....................... , or SHARED........................ , in forming a compound.

Oxidation state is defined as the  the total number of electrons that an atom gains or loses when forming a chemical bond with another atom.

----To form an ionic bond for example in NaCl, Na, with 11 electrons and one valence electron in its outermost shell donates or lose that valence electron to Chlorine  with 17 electron and 7 in its outermost shell. Therefore Sodium, Na acquires the +1 oxidaton state to become stable and Chlorine acquires the -1 oxidation state  to become stable  forming the  NaCl compound.

To form a covalent compound, There must be sharing of electrons between atoms.For example, in PCl3,  The  phosphorous atom with atomic number 15 shares its three unpaired electrons with the single valence electrons of three chlorine atoms. making the four molecules to attain stability with  Phosphorous having +3 and the chlorine atoms having -1 oxidation states

Suppose you are titrating vinegar, which is an acetic acid solution
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

0.373 M

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

HC2H3O2 + NaOH —> NaC2H3O2 + H2O

From the balanced equation above, the following were obtained:

Mole ratio of the acid, HC2H3O2 (nA) = 1

Mole ratio of the base, NaOH (nB) = 1

Next, we shall write out the data obtained from the question. This include:

Volume of base, NaOH (Vb) = 32.17 mL

Molarity of base, NaOH (Mb) = 0.116 M

Volume of acid, HC2H3O2 (Va) = 10 mL

Molarity of acid, HC2H3O2 (Ma) =..?

The molarity of the acid solution can be obtained as follow:

MaVa/MbVb = nA/nB

Ma x 10 / 0.116 x 32.17 = 1

Cross multiply

Ma x 10 = 0.116 x 32.17

Divide both side by 10

Ma = (0.116 x 32.17) /10

Ma = 0.373 M

Therefore, the concentration of the acetic acid is 0.373 M.
