6 0

Explanation:

There are many kinds of prefixes which are used in the metric system. The most common prefixes that are used are :- mega, centi, milli, nano, kilo, fermi, pico, etc.

<em><u>These are used to designate a subdivision or a multiple of the unit in order to deal with very small numbers or very large numbers . All of these prefixes designate the power of 10. </u></em>

<em><u>For example, kilo represents 1000 of the unit.</u></em>

1. How many ATOMS of carbon are present in 7.48 grams of carbon monoxide ?
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

The answer is 1.61 × 10²³ atoms

Explanation:

To determine number of atoms, we will use the formula below

Number of atoms = number of moles (n) × avogadro's constant (6.02 x 10²³)

n was not provided, hence we will solve for n

n = mass/ molar mass

molar mass of carbon monoxide, CO (where C is 12 and O is 16) is 12 + 16 = 28

mass was provided in the question as 7.48

n = 7.48/28

n = 0.267

Hence,

number of atoms = 0.267 × 6.02 x 10²³

= 1.61 × 10²³ atoms

What is the wavelength (in nm) of the least energetic spectral line in the visible series of the H atom?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Brackett Series (n = 4)

Explanation:

The least energetic line of Hydrogen atom lies in <em>Brackett Series </em>when n = 4 because these are least energetic, have longer wavelengths and lies in Infrared region of spectrum.  No traces of <em>Pfund series </em>are formed by H=atoms.
