Recently, the media, always trying to make things sound sensational, have started to call totally eclipsed moon "the blood moon.

" Why does the Moon look reddish to us when there is a total lunar eclipse?

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

- One meaning of a "blood moon" is based on its red glow. This blood moon occurs during a total lunar eclipse. During a total lunar eclipse, Earth lines up between the Moon and the Sun. This hides the Moon from the sunlight.

- When this happens, the only light that reaches the Moon's surface is from the edges of the Earth's atmosphere. The air molecules from Earth's atmosphere scatter out most of the blue light. The remaining light reflects onto the Moon's surface with a red glow, making the Moon appear red in the night sky.

Sunlight has its maximum intensity at a wavelength of 4.83 x 10'm; wha energy does this correspond to in e?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

E = 2,575 eV

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the Planck equation and the relationship of the speed of light with the frequency and wavelength

     E = h f

     c = λ f

Where the Planck constant has a value of 6.63 10⁻³⁴ J s

Let's replace

    E = h c / λ

Let's calculate for wavelengths

    λ = 4.83 10-7 m     (blue)

    E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸ / 4.83 10⁻⁷

    E = 4.12 10-19 J

The transformation from J to eV is 1 eV = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J

    E = 4.12 10⁻¹⁹ J (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J)

    E = 2,575 eV

How do two sublevels of the same principal energy level differ from each other
Colt1911 [192]

Each energy sublevel corresponds to an orbital of a different shape.

Explanation:

Two sublevels of the same principal energy level differs from each other if the sublevels corrresponds to an orbital of a different shape.

  • The principal quantum number of an atom represents the main energy level in which the orbital is located or the distance of an orbital from the nucleus. It takes values of n = 1,2,3,4 et.c
  • The secondary quantum number gives the shape of the orbitals in subshells accommodating electrons.
  • The number of possible shapes is limited  by the principal quantum numbers.

Take for example, Carbon:

                      1s² 2s² 2p²

   The second energy level is 2 but with two different sublevels of s and p. They have different shapes. S is spherical and P is dumb-bell shaped .
