When electrons move from the fourth energy level to the second energy level , they emit visible light. Why is the light emitted

when an electron makes this move in a sodium atom is a different color than the light emitted by an electron moving from the fourth to the second level of a hydrogen atom?

The light emitted by the moving electrons of different atoms or elements differ in color because they also emit different energies. In the visible spectrum of color waves, a certain wavelength or energy corresponds to a specific color.

Place the following compounds in order of increasing strength of intermolecular forces. HF H2 CH3Cl
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

H2 < CH3Cl < HF

Explanation:

The intermolecular forces are the forces that bond the molecules together in a substance. There are three types of these forces:

  1. Dipole induced -dipole induced, or London dispersion -> Is the weakest and is presented in nonpolar molecules, in which a dipole is induced and so the molecules are joined together;
  2. Dipole-dipole -> Is stronger than the London dispersion and occurs in a polar molecule. In this case, the dipole already exists (partial positive and negative charges), so the poles are attracted;
  3. Hydrogen bond -> It's the strongest and is formed when the hydrogen is bonded with a higher electronegativity element (F, O, and N).

So, the molecule of H2 is linear and formed by the same element, so, is nonpolar, and has London dispersion forces. The molecule of CH3Cl has 3 nonpolar bonds (C-H), and one polar bond (C-Cl), so it's polar and has dipole-dipole forces. And the HF molecule has hydrogen bonds.

*A polar bond is a bond formed by elements with different electronegativities.

Balance the redox reaction below in acidic solution. pbo2(s) + i-(aq) pb2+(aq) + i2(s) when balanced what is the sum of all the
chubhunter [2.5K]
Two Half Cell reactions are as,

Reduction:                   PbO₂  +  2e⁻   →     Pb²⁺  

As it is acidic medium reaction, so add H⁺ on reactant side as it has more number of oxygen atoms and add H₂O on product side, and balance tehe elements, So,
                             4 H⁺     +   PbO₂  +  2e⁻   →     Pb²⁺   +    2 H₂O      (1)

Oxidation:                        I⁻     →     I₂   +  1e⁻

Balance Number of elements along with electrons,

                                        2 I⁻     →     I₂   +  2e⁻                                    (2)

Compare eq. 1 and 2,

                             4 H⁺     +   PbO₂  +  2e⁻   →     Pb²⁺   +    2 H₂O

                                                           2 I⁻     →     I₂   +  2e⁻ 
                            ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻
                            PbO₂  +  2 I⁻  +  4 H⁺     →     Pb²⁺  +  I₂  +  2H₂O


                                   Number of Coefficients  =  11
