Answer:

Option B will require a shorter wave length of light.

Explanation:

The bonding between Ozone (O3) and Oxygen (O2) can be used to explain why the breaking of oxygen into Oxygen radicals will require a shorter wave length.

The bond between Oxygen (O2) is a double bond while Ozone (O3) has an intermediate bond between a double bond and a single bond.

The bond order of Oxygen (O2) is equals 2 while that of Ozone (O3) is 1.5. Since the bond order of oxygen is higher, it will require more energy to break the bond compared to breaking the Ozone (O3) bond.

Recall that Energy is inversely proportional to wave length.

So it will require a shorter wave length to break the Oxygen (O2) into its radicals.

Answer:

Option c: Possible electron energy states are quantized within an atom.

Explanation:

The Bohr's Model of the hydrogen atom consisted of the movements of the electrons around the positively-charged nucleus in circular orbits that have a certain energy state. The energy of that orbit is given by:

$E_{n} = - \frac{Rhc}{n^{2}}$

<em>Where:</em>

E(n): is the energy of an electron in a particular orbit

R: is the Rydberg constant

h: is the Plank constant

c: is the speed of light

n: is a positive integer which corresponds to the number of the orbit

The ground state energy of a electron in the hydrogen atom is equal to -13,6 eV.

Bohr's Model aims to propose that the electron is restrictedly to occupy a certain region in the atom.

Therefore, the conclusion of Bohr after observing emission spectrum lines is that "possible electron energy states are quantized within an atom", so the correct option is c.

Annette [7]

This process is called filtration. This process is a solid-fluid separation by the use of a medium wherein only the fluid (gases or liquids) can go through it. The medium is called the filter while the fluid that passed through the filter is called the filtrate. The solid particles are the large particles which cannot pass through the filter.
