Answer:

Less

Explanation:

Since [Cu(NH3)4]2+ and [Cu(H2O)6]2+ are Octahedral Complexes the transitions between d-levels explain the majority of the absorbances seen in those chemical compounds. The difference in energy between d-levels is known as ΔOh (ligand-field splitting parameter) and it depends on several factors:

  • The nature of the ligand: A spectrochemical series is a list of ligands ordered on ligand strength. With a higher strength the ΔOh will be higher and thus it requires a higher energy light to make the transition.
  • The oxidation state of the metal: Higher oxidation states will strength the ΔOh because of the higher electrostatic attraction between the metal and the ligand

A partial spectrochemical series listing of ligands from small Δ to large Δ:

I− < Br− < S2− < Cl− < N3− < F−< NCO− < OH− < C2O42− < H2O < CH3CN < NH3 < NO2− < PPh3 < CN− < CO

Then NH3 makes the ΔOh higher and it requires a higher energy light to make the transition, which means a shorter wavelength.

The half life for the decay of carbon-14 is 5.73 x 10 years. Suppose the activity due to the radioactive decay of the carbon-14
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Age of the atifact is 4.2\times 10^{2} years

Explanation:

  • For first -order radioactive decay- A_{t}=A_{0}(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}
  • A_{t} represents activity of radioactive nuclide after t time, A_{0} represents initial activity of radioactive nuclide and t_{\frac{1}{2}} represents half-life
  • Here, A_{t}=19Bq, A_{0}=20Bq and t_{\frac{1}{2}}=5.73\times 10^{3}years

Plug-in all the given values in the above equation-

19=20\times (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{5.73\times 10^{3}}}

or, t=4.2\times 10^{2}

So, age of the atifact is 4.2\times 10^{2} years

Chemistry omg need help plz I need plz. I real badly at it and try to get better but plz help me
Rufina [12.5K]
We all struggle in some subjects, you do badly when you don't try, and sometimes we try and can't get the answer, I'll help with that. :)

The first answer is CO2(g), CO2 is a gas, and all gas have... 4) No definite shape, no definite volume.

A piece of ice, a block of wood, and a ceramic cup are solids. They have shapes that do not change and volumes that can be measured. Any matter that is a solid has a definite shape and a definite volume.

A liquid takes the shape of what holds it, besides a flat surface, which will just evidently, take the shape of a flat surface. A liquid has a definite volume, because the volume of a liquid is constant because forces of attraction keep the particles loosely together.

Gases attempt to fill a container of any shape or size. Therefore, it has no definite shape.
There are forces of attraction among the particles in all matter, therefore, it has no definite volume.

The second question might become easier with the explanation above. A liquid has a definite volume because the forces of attraction are loosely together! Therefore, it has a definite volume, but it will take the shape of it's container.

This means... Yes! 2) It retains its original volume but changes shape.

This one is easy. To convert one gram of a solid at its normal heating point to a liquid at the same temperature, is the 1) Heat of Vaporization.

Heat of Vaporization is the amount of heat energy required to convert one gram of a substance from a liquid to a gas.

The third question, the molecules for H20, in a solid phase are always in an geometric and arranged pattern.

Most solids are arranged in geometric and arranged patterns, and since H20 is not in its indefinitely shaped liquid phase, it has a definite shape and thus, retains a repeating (geometric) pattern.

(Note- Some solids like wax or rubber do not have an arranged or geometric pattern.)

The “average of a kinetic energy” is defined as the vitality of movement of particles of a framework.

Or in simpler terms, “energy motion”.

So when temperature increases, the average kinetic energy of a molecule(s) 1) increases.

How to figure out which melting point would have the lowest melting point ?
stellarik [79]

Answer:

That would be helium, with a melting point of 0.95 K (-272.20 °C)—although this happens only under considerable pressure (~25 atmospheres). At ordinary pressure, helium would remain liquid even if it could be chilled to absolute zero.
