Answer:
During nuclear fission and fusion matter that seems to disappear but is actually converted into energy. The amount of energy (E) produced in such a reaction can be calculated using Einstein's formula for the equivalence of mass and energy: E = mc^2.
Explanation:
Answer:
Two covalent bonds form between the two oxygen atoms because oxygen requires two shared electrons to fill its outermost shell. Nitrogen atoms will form three covalent bonds (also called triple covalent) between two atoms of nitrogen because each nitrogen atom needs three electrons to fill its outermost shell.
Answer:
1.64x10⁻¹⁸ J
Explanation:
By the Bohr model, the electrons surround the nucleus of the atom in shells or levels of energy. Each one has it's energy, and the electron doesn't fall to the nucleus because it can reach another level of energy, and then return to its level.
When the electrons go to another level, it absorbs energy, and then, when return, this energy is released, as a photon (generally as luminous energy). The value of the energy can be calculated by:
E = hc/λ
Where h is the Planck constant (6.626x10⁻³⁴ J.s), c is the light speed (3.00x10⁸ m/s), and λ is the wavelength of the photon.
The wavelength can be calculated by:
1/λ = R*(1/nf² - 1/ni²)
Where R is the Rydberg constant (1.097x10⁷ m⁻¹), nf is the final orbit, and ni the initial orbit. So:
1/λ = 1.097x10⁷ *(1/1² - 1/2²)
1/λ = 8.227x10⁶
λ = 1.215x10⁻⁷ m
So, the energy is:
E = (6.626x10⁻³⁴ * 3.00x10⁸)/(1.215x10⁻⁷)
E = 1.64x10⁻¹⁸ J
Answer: scientific explanation
Explanation:
A really good scientific explanation should do two main things: It should explain all the observations and data we have. It should allow us to make testable predictions that we can check using future experiments.
