Answer:

1080 photons

Explanation:

ΔE = hc/λ => Energy per photon

h = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ j·s

c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ= 535 nm = 5.35 x 10⁻⁷ m

ΔE/photon = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ j·s)(c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(5.35 x 10⁻⁷ m) = 3.71 x 10⁻¹⁹ j/photon

For #photons in 4.00 x 10⁻⁷ j =  (4.00 x 10⁻⁷ j) / (3.71 x 10⁻¹⁹ j/photon) = 1076 photons ≅ 1080 photons (3 sig. figs.)

Answer:

Potassium is an element, with the symbol K

Explanation:

An element is something that cannot be broken down any further, for example, calcium, its Ca.

A compound is when you bond two or more elements. Compounds can be broken down into its original elements, for example, H₂O, it contains two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen (both hydrogen and oxygen are elements).
