Answer:

Answer choice B

Explanation:

All things in the universe naturally flow from areas of higher concentration or energy to those with lower concentration or energy. A pump reverses this process, which means that you need to add energy to make it work. Hope this helps, and PM me with any further questions!

When an electron in a 2p orbital of a particular atom makes a transition to the 2s orbital, a photon of approximate wavelength 6

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The energy difference between these 2p and 2s orbitals is $3.07\times 10^{-19} J$

Explanation:

Wavelength of the photon emitted = $\lambda =646.3 nm =646.3\times 10^{-9} m$

Energy of the photon will corresponds to the energy difference between 2p and 2s orbital = E

Energy of the photon is given by Planck's equation:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }$

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\tiomes 10^{-34} Js$

c = Speed of the light = $3\times 10^8 m/s$

$E=\frac{6.626\tiomes 10^{-34} Js\times 3\times 10^8 m/s}{646.3\times 10^{-9} m}$

$E=3.07\times 10^{-19} J$

The energy difference between these 2p and 2s orbitals is $3.07\times 10^{-19} J$

A chemical reaction is shown below:

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Mass = 8.46 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of water produced = ?

Mass of glucose = 20 g

Mass of oxygen = 15 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6H₂O + 6CO₂

Number of moles of glucose:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 20 g/ 180.16 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.11 mol

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 15 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.47 mol

now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen and glucose.

C₆H₁₂O₆ : H₂O

1 : 6

0.11 : 6/1×0.11 = 0.66

O₂ : H₂O

6 : 6

0.47 : 0.47

Less number of moles of water are produced by oxygen thus it will limit the yield of water and act as limiting reactant.

Mass of water produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.47 mol ×18 g/mol

Mass = 8.46 g

An analytical chemist weighs out 0.188 g of an unknown triprotic acid into a 250 mL volumetric flask and dilutes to the mark wit

Anon25 [30]

<u>Answer:</u> The molar mass of unknown triprotic acid is 97.66 g/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molarity of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of triprotic acid

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

$n_1=3\\M_1=?M\\V_1=250mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.0600M\\V_2=95.9mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$3\times M_1\times 250=1\times 0.0600\times 95.9\\\\M_1=0.0077M$

To calculate the molecular mass of solute, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

We are given:

Molarity of solution = 0.0077 M

Given mass of triprotic acid = 0.188 g

Volume of solution = 250 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0077M=\frac{0.188\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of triprotic acid}\times 250}\\\\\text{Molar mass of triprotic acid}=97.66g/mol$

Hence, the molar mass of unknown triprotic acid is 97.66 g/mol
