<span>First divide the ionization energy by Avogadro's number to get the energy per atom of potassium;
</span>419 kj/mol / 6.023 x 10²³
= 4.19 x 10⁵ / 6.023 x 10²³ = 6.96 x 10⁻¹⁹
E = hc/λ
where lambda (λ<span>) is the wavelength, h is Planck's constant, c is the speed of light 
</span>E = 6.96 x 10⁻¹⁹ j/atom<span>
h =</span>6.63x10⁻³⁴<span> Js
c = 3 x 10</span>⁸ m/s
λ = ?
λ = hc/E = (6.63x10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10⁸ ) / 6.96 x 10⁻¹⁹ = 285.8nm = 286nm
<span>The longest wavelength of light capable of this ionization is 286nm.</span>

Compare the volume of 14.1 g of helium to 14.1 g of argon gas (under identical conditions).
s2008m [1.1K]
The Volumes can be calculated from Masses by using following Formula,

                                        Density  =  Mass / Volume
Solving for Volume,
                                        Volume  =  Mass / Density

Mass of Both Gases  =  14.1 g

Density of Argon at S.T.P  =  1.784 g/L

Density of Helium at S.T.P  =  0.179 g/L

For Argon:
                                        Volume  =  14.1 g / 1.784 g/L

                                        Volume  =  7.90 L

For Helium:
                                        Volume  =  14.1 g / 0.179 g/L

                                        Volume  =  78.77 L

15.89 percent carbon, 21.18 percent oxygen, and 62.93 percent osmium. what is the empirical formula
otez555 [7]

Answer:

OsCO or COOs

Explanation:

Data given

Carbon = 15.89 %

Oxygen = 21.18 %

Osmium = 62.93%

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

First find the masses of each component

Consider total compound is 100g

As we now

mass of element = % of component

So,

15.89 g of C     = 15.89 % Carbon

21.18 g of O      =   21.18 % Oxygen

62.93 g of Os  =   62.93% Osmium

Now convert the masses to moles

For Carbon

Molar mass of C = 12 g/mol

                  no. of mole = mass in g / molar mass

Put value in above formula

                  no. of mole =  15.89 g/ 12 g/mol

                  no. of mole =  1.3242

mole of C = 1.3242

For Oxygen

Molar mass of O = 16 g/mol

                  no. of mole = mass in g / molar mass

Put value in above formula

                  no. of mole =  21.18 g/ 16 g/mol

                  no. of mole =  

mole of O = 1.3238

For Os

Molar mass of Os = 190 g/mol

                  no. of mole = mass in g / molar mass

Put value in above formula

                  no. of mole =  62.93 g/ 190 g/mol

                  no. of mole =  

mole of Os = 1.3312

Now we have values in moles as below

C = 1.3242

O = 1.3238

Os = 1.3312

Divide the all values on the smalest values to get whole number ratio

C = 1.3242 /1.3238 = 1.0003

O = 1.3238 /1.3238 = 1

Os = 1.3312 /1.3238 = 1.0056

So all have round value 1 mole

C = 1

O = 1

Os = 1

So the empirical formula will be (OsCO) i.e. all 3 atoms in simplest small ratio
