<u>Answer:</u> The de-Broglie's wavelength of a hydrogen molecule is 3.26\AA

<u>Explanation:</u>

Kinetic energy is the measure of temperature of the system.

The equation used to calculate kinetic energy of a particle follows:

E=\frac{3}{2}kT

where,

E = kinetic energy of the particles  = ?

k = Boltzmann constant  = 1.38\times 10^{-23}J/K

T = temperature of the particle = 30 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

E=\frac{3}{2}\times 1.38\times 10^{-23}J/K\times 30K\\\\E=6.21\times 10^{-22}J

  • Calculating the mass of 1 molecule of hydrogen gas:

Conversion factor used:  1 kg = 1000 g

1 mole of hydrogen gas has a mass of 2 grams or 2\times 10^{-3}kg  

According to mole concept:

6.022\times 10^{23} number of molecules occupy 1 mole of a gas.

As, 6.022\times 10^{23} number of hydrogen molecules has a mass of 2\times 10^{-3}kg

So, 1 molecule of hydrogen will have a mass of = \frac{2\times 10^{-3}kg}{6.022\times 10^{23}}\times 1=3.32\times 10^{-27}kg

  • To calculate the wavelength of a particle, we use the equation given by De-Broglie's wavelength, which is:

\lambda=\frac{h}{\sqrt{2mE_k}}

where,

\lambda = De-Broglie's wavelength = ?

h = Planck's constant = 6.624\times 10^{-34}Js

m = mass of 1 hydrogen molecule = 3.32\times 10^{-27}kg

E_k = kinetic energy of the particle = 6.21\times 10^{-22}J

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\lambda=\frac{6.624\times 10^{-34}Js}{\sqrt{2\times 3.32\times 10^{-27}kg\times 6.21\times 10^{-22}J}}

\lambda=3.26\times 10^{-10}m=3.26\AA    (Conversion factor: 1\AA=10^{-10}m )

Hence, the de-Broglie's wavelength of a hydrogen molecule is 3.26\AA

The average rate of consumption of br− is 1.86×10−4 m/s over the first two minutes. what is the average rate of formation of br2
Scorpion4ik [409]
By considering the reaction equation is:
5Br(aq)+BrO3(aq)+6H(aq)= 3Br2(aq)+3H2O(l)
when the average rate of consumption of Br = 1.86x10^-4 m/s
So from the reaction equation 
5Br → 3Br2 when we measure the average rate of formation (X) during the same interval So,
∴ 1.86x10^-4/5 = X / 3
∴X = 1.1 x 10^-4 m/s
∴the average rate of formation of Br2 = 1.1x10^-4 m/s

What is the energy change if 84.0 g of calcium oxide (CaO) reacts with excess water in the following reaction?
pochemuha
   The energy change  if 84.0 g   of CaO  react  with  excess  water is  98KJ of heat is released.

calculation
heat  =  number of moles  x  delta H

delta H = - 65.2  Kj/mol

first find the number of  moles  of  CaO reacted

moles = mass/molar mass
the molar mass  of CaO =  40 +  16=  56 g/mol
mass = 84 g
moles therefore = 84 g/56 g/mol =1.5 moles

Heat is therefore =  1.5 moles  x -65.2 = - 97.8 Kj = -98 Kj

  since  sign is  negative  the   energy  is released
