Each element absorbs light at specific wavelengths unique to that atom. When astronomers look at an object's spectrum, they can determine its composition based on these wavelengths.
Not sure if this is 100% but I hope it helps.

The electronegativity values of fluorine, oxygen, and hydrogen are compared in the table. Comparison of Electronegativity Elemen
Dvinal [7]

The hydrogen bonding in H₂O is stronger than that of HF

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonds are special dipole-dipole attraction in which electrostatic attraction is established between hydrogen atom of one molecule and the electronegative atom of a neighboring molecule.

  • The strength of hydrogen bonds depends on the how electronegative an atom is.
  • Electronegativity refers to the tendency of an atom to gain electrons.
  • The higher the value, the higher the tendency.
  • This why oxygen with a higher electronegativity will form a stronger hydrogen bond with hydrogen compared to fluorine.

When .080 moles of propane burn at STP, what volume of carbon dioxide is produced?
ahrayia [7]

Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry and the definition of STP, 5.4 L of carbon dioxide is produced.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • C₃H₈: 1 mole
  • O₂: 5 moles
  • CO₂: 3 moles
  • H₂O: 4 moles

<h3>Moles of CO₂ formed</h3>

The following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 1 mole of C₃H₈ form 3 moles of CO₂, 0.080 moles of C₃H₈ form how many moles of CO₂?

amount of moles of CO_{2} =\frac{0.080 moles of C_{3} H_{8}x3 moles of CO_{2} }{1 mole of C_{3} H_{8} }

<u><em>amount of moles of CO₂= 0.24 moles</em></u>

<h3>Definition of STP condition</h3>

The STP conditions refer to the standard temperature and pressure. Pressure values at 1 atmosphere and temperature at 0 ° C are used and are reference values for gases. And in these conditions 1 mole of any gas occupies an approximate volume of 22.4 liters.

<h3>Volume of CO₂ produced</h3>

You can apply the following rule of three: If by definition of STP 1 mole of CO₂ occupies 22.4 L, 0.24 moles of CO₂ how much volume does it occupy?

volume of CO_{2} =\frac{0.24 molesx22.4 L}{1 mole}

<u><em>volume of CO₂= 5.376 L ≅ 5.4 L</em></u>

Finally, 5.4 L of carbon dioxide is produced.

How many atoms are in a sample of 175 grams of sodium (Na)? The answer needs to be <br> a x 10^b
ValentinkaMS [17]
Atomic mass Sodium ( Na ) = 22.98 u.m.a

22.98 g ----------------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
175 g ------------------- ?? atoms

175 x ( 6.02x10²³) / 22.98 =

4.58x10²⁴ atoms of Na
