Why did scientists debate the nature of electromagnetic radiation for more than 200 years?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kifflom [539]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

Scientists debated about the nature of electromagnetic radiation for more than 200 years because they could not distinguish if the radiations were made up of waves or just particles. This debate was between 1600 to the early part of 1900s.

  • Some scientists believed that electromagnetic radiations were made up of purely waves.
  • Some were of the school of thought that the radiations consists of jsut particles.
  • The wave-particle theory by Albert Einstein provided solution to this debate.
  • He simply propounded that electromagnetic radiations are made up of both waves and particles.

Today, it is widely accepted and known that electromagnetic radiations consists of both waves and particles.

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

In order to prepare 10 mL, 5 μM; <em> 2 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted with water up to 10 mL mark.</em>

In order to prepare 10 mL, 10 μM; <em>4 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

In order to prepare 10 mL, 15 μM; <em>6 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

In order to prepare 10 mL, 20 μM; <em>8 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

Explanation:

Using the dilution equation:

no of moles before dilution = no of moles after dilution.

Molarity x volume (initial)= Molarity x volume (final).

In order to prepare 10 mL, 5 μM from 25 μM solution,

Final molarity = 5 μM, final volume = 10 mL, initial molarity = 25 μM, initial volume = ?

25 x initial volume = 5 x 10

Initial volume = 50/25

                       = 2 mL

<em>2 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

<em />

In order to prepare 10 mL, 10 μM from 25 μM stock,

25 x initial volume = 10 x 10

Initial volume = 100/25 = 4 mL

<em>4 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

In order to prepare 10 mL, 15 μM from 25 μM stock,

25 x initial volume = 15 x 10

initial volume = 150/25 = 6 mL

<em>6 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

In order to prepare 10 mL, 20 μM from 25 μM stock,

25 x initial volume = 20 x 10

initial volume = 200/25 = 8 mL

<em>8 mL of the 25 μM stock solution will be taken and diluted up to 10 mL mark.</em>

If 125g of KClO3 is heated, what is the total mass of the products?​
Andrej [43]

Given parameters:

Mass of KClO₃  = 125g

Unknown:

Total mass of the products = ?

When  KClO₃ is heated, it thermally decomposes to KCl and O₂ according to the chemical equation below;

               2KClO₃  →  2KCl + 3O₂

All chemical equations obeys the law of conservation of matter and with this regard, we know that the amount of reactants used is the same as that of the product.

The total mass of the products must give us 125g according to this law of conservation of matter.

Now to find the masses of each product,

  1. Find the number of moles of the given reactant:

     Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

  molar mass of  KClO₃  = 39 + 35.5 + 3(16)  = 122.5g/mol

    So number of moles of KClO₃ = \frac{125}{122.5}  = 1.02moles

    2. Now, using this number of moles, find the number of moles of the products using this value;

   2 moles of KClO₃ produced 2 moles of KCl

  1.02 moles of KClO₃ will also produce 1.02moles of KCl

   2 moles of KClO₃ produced 3 moles of O₂

   1.02 moles of KClO₃ will produce   \frac{1.02 x 3} {2} mole = 1.53 moles of O₂

   3. Now find the masses of each product;

Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

  molar mass of KCl  = 39 + 35.5 = 74.5g/mol

  molar mass of O₂  = 16 x 2  = 32g/mol

  Mass of KCl  = 74.5 x 1.02  = 75.99g

  Mass of O₂  = 32 x 1.53 = 48.96g

Total mass of products = mass of KCl + Mass of O₂ = 75.99g + 48.96g

                                        = 124.95g

This value is approximately the same as that of mass of  KClO₃
