Which of the following statements is TRUE? Question 5 options: The emission spectrum of a particular element is always the same
amm1812

Answer:

All of the above are true

Explanation:

a) The emission spectrum of a particular element is always the same and can be used to identify the element: It's true since the emission spectrum for each element is unique. It has the same bright lines at the same wavelength. This feature is used to identify elements. For example, the study of the emission spectra of light arriving from stars allow us to identify the elements presents in the star because the light contains the emission spectra of those elements.

b)The uncertainty principle states that we can never know both the exact location and speed of an electron:  It is true since the velocity of an electron is related to its wave nature, while its position is related to its particle nature and we cannot simultaneously measure electron's position and velocity with precision.

c) An orbital is the volume in which we are most likely to find an electron: An orbital is a probability distribution map that is used to decribe the likely position of an electron in an atom.

lara31 [8.8K]
Neil Bohr contributed towards science in many ways, but his contributions did not include the charge of an electron. Neil Bohr recognized a relationship between the chemical properties of a substance and the number of valence shell electrons. Moreover, he introduced the atomic model in 1913 and provided the liquid-drop model to explain nuclear fusion.

The standard enthalpy change for the following reaction is 873 kJ at 298 K.
Flura [38]

Answer:  - 436.5 kJ.

Explanation:

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation.

The given chemical reaction is,

2KCl(s)\rightarrow 2K(s)+Cl_2(g)  \Delta H_1=873kJ

Now we have to determine the value of \Delta H for the following reaction i.e,

K(s)+\frac{1}{2}Cl_2(g)\rightarrow KCl(s) \Delta H_2=?

According to the Hess’s law, if we divide the reaction by half then the \Delta H will also get halved and on reversing the reaction , the sign of enthlapy changes.

So, the value \Delta H_2 for the reaction will be:

\Delta H_2=\frac{1}{2}\times (-873kJ)

\Delta H_2=-436.5kJ

Hence, the value of \Delta H_2 for the reaction is -436.5 kJ.
