Answer:

  • <u>2.59 × 10⁻⁷ m  = 259 nm</u>

Explanation:

You need to calculate the wavelength of a photon with an energy equal to 463 kJ/mol, which is the energy to break an oxygen-hydrogen atom.

The energy of a photon and its wavelength are related by the Planck - Einstein equation:

  • E = hν,

Where:

  • E = energy of a photon,
  • h = Planck constant (6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J . s) and
  • ν = frequency of the photon.

And:

  • ν = c / λ

Where:

  • c = speed of light (3.00 × 10⁸ m/s in vacuum)
  • λ = wavelength of the photon

Thus, you can derive:

  • E = h c / λ

Solve for λ:

  • λ = h c / E

Before substituting the values, convert the energy, 463 kJ/ mol, to J/bond

  • 463 kJ/ mol × 1,000 J/kJ × 1 mol / 6.022 × 10 ²³ atom × 1 bond / atom

       = 7.69×10²³ J / bond

Substitute the values and use the energy of one bond:

  • λ = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J . s × 3.00 × 10⁸ m/s / 7.69×10²³ J = 2.59 × 10⁻⁷ m

The wavelength of light is usually shown in nanometers:

  • 2.59 × 10⁻⁷ m × 10⁹ nm / m = 259 nm ← answer

What is smaller than one cell
mr_godi [17]
The organelles and substances inside the organelles are smaller. On a molecular level a group that are smaller are hadrons, which are the group of particles that consist of protons and neutrons. Even smaller than hadrons are leptons, which consist of neutrinos, electons, and MANY others.

How are Kelvin scale and celcius scale similar <br>​
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: The Kelvin scale is related to the Celsius scale. The difference between the freezing and boiling points of water is 100 degrees in each, so that the kelvin has the same magnitude as the degree Celsius.

Explanation:

Celsius is, or relates to, the Celsius temperature scale (previously known as the centigrade scale). The degree Celsius (symbol: °C) can refer to a specific temperature on the Celsius scale as well as serve as a unit increment to indicate a temperature interval(a difference between two temperatures or an uncertainty). “Celsius” is named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius (1701-1744), who developed a similar temperature scale two years before his death.

K = °C + 273.15

°C = K − 273.15

Until 1954, 0 °C on the Celsius scale was defined as the melting point of ice and 100 °C was defined as the boiling point of water under a pressure of one standard atmosphere; this close equivalence is taught in schools today. However, the unit “degree Celsius” and the Celsius scale are currently, by international agreement, defined by two different points: absolute zero, and the triple point of specially prepared water. This definition also precisely relates the Celsius scale to the Kelvin scale, which is the SI base unit of temperature (symbol: K). Absolute zero—the temperature at which nothing could be colder and no heat energy remains in a substance—is defined as being precisely 0 K and −273.15 °C. The triple point of water is defined as being precisely 273.16 K and 0.01 °C.

<h3>What are  ion-selective electrodes?</h3>

Analytical chemistry is a science that deal with the measurement and detection of the accurate amount of a substance. Analytical chemistry plays a large role in environmental management as it helps in the determination of the levels of contaminants in a sample.

An ion selective electrode is used in analytical chemistry to measure the amount of a target ion by converting its activity into a measurable electrical signal.

Hence, when using ion-selective electrodes, to compensate for a complex or unknown matrix, the  standard addition method can be used to determine the analyte concentration.
