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.)

The molar mass of oxygen gas (O2) is 32.00 g/mol. The molar mass of C3H8 is 44.1 g/mol.
alexira [117]
<span>the balanced chemical equation for the reaction is as follows;
 C</span>₃H₈ + 5O₂ ---> 3CO₂ + 4H₂<span>O
                   
stoichiometry of </span> C₃H₈ to O₂ is 1:5
   
number of moles of  C₃H₈ reacted - 0.025 g / 44.1 g/mol = 0.000567 mol according to molar ratio of 1:5
number of O₂ moles required are 5 times the amount of  C₃H₈ moles reacted therefore number of O₂ moles required - 0.000567 x 5 = 0.00284 mol .
mass of O₂ required - 0.00284 mol x 32.00 g/mol = 0.091 mol .
 answer is 0.091 mol

Which atom in the ground state has the same electron configuration as a calcium ion, Ca2+, in the ground state?(1) Ar(2) K(3) Mg
Irina-Kira [14]

atoms are made of 3 types of subatomic particles; electrons, protons and neutrons

atomic number is the number of protons. atomic number is characteristic for the element. In ground state atoms, the number of electrons and protons are the same.

the electronic configuration of Ca in the ground state is

Ca - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s²

when Ca loses its 2 valence electrons, it becomes positively charged and the electronic configuration becomes

Ca - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶

number of electrons in Ca²⁺ is 18

the atom in the ground state would have the same number of electrons and protons. Therefore number of protons are 18. then the atomic number of the element is 18

the atom having an atomic number of 18 is Ar.

the answer is 1) Ar

Given what you observe at the molecular/atomic level, why would surface area have this effect?
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Increasing the surface area of a reactant increases the frequency of collisions and increases the reaction rate. Several smaller particles have more surface area than one large particle. The more surface area that is available for particles to collide, the faster the reaction will occur.
