<u>Answer:</u> The longest wavelength of light is 656.5 nm

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the longest wavelength, the transition should be from n to n+1, where: n = lower energy level

To calculate the wavelength of light, we use Rydberg's Equation:

\frac{1}{\lambda}=R_H\left(\frac{1}{n_i^2}-\frac{1}{n_f^2} \right )

Where,

\lambda = Wavelength of radiation

R_H = Rydberg's Constant  = 1.096776\times 10^7m^{-1}

n_f = Higher energy level = n_i+1=(2+1)=3

n_i= Lower energy level = 2    (Balmer series)

Putting the values in above equation, we get:

\frac{1}{\lambda }=1.096776\times 10^7m^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2} \right )\\\\\lambda =\frac{1}{1.5233\times 10^6m^{-1}}=6.565\times 10^{-7}m

Converting this into nanometers, we use the conversion factor:

1m=10^9nm

So, 6.565\times 10^{-7}m\times (\frac{10^9nm}{1m})=656.5nm

Hence, the longest wavelength of light is 656.5 nm

5) Calculate the molality of 0.210 mol of KBr dissolved in 0.075kg pure<br> water?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 2.8 \ m }}

Explanation:

The formula for molality is:

m=\frac{moles \ of \ solute}{kg \ of \ solvent}

There are 0.210 moles of KBr and 0.075 kilograms of pure water.

moles= 0.210 \ mol \\kilograms = 0.075 \ kg

Substitute the values into the formula.

m= \frac{ 0.210 \ mol }{0.075 \ kg}

Divide.

m= 2.8 \ mol/kg= 2.8 \ m

The molality is <u>2.8 moles per kilogram</u>

A chemist dissolves of pure hydroiodic acid in enough water to make up of solution. Calculate the pH of the solution. Be sure yo
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

1.76

Explanation:

There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.

<em>A chemist dissolves 660.mg of pure hydroiodic acid in enough water to make up 300.mL of solution. Calculate the pH of the solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.</em>

<em />

Step 1: Calculate the molarity of HI(aq)

M = mass of solute / molar mass of solute × liters of solution

M = 0.660 g / 127.91 g/mol × 0.300 L

M = 0.0172 M

Step 2: Write the acid dissociation reaction

HI(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + I⁻(aq)

HI is a strong acid, so [H⁺] = 0.0172 M

Step 3: Calculate the pH

pH = -log [H⁺]

pH = -log 0.0172

pH = 1.76
