solution:

You need to find the frequency, and they have already given you the wavelength. And since you already know the speed of light, you can use formula (2) to answer this problem. Remember to convert the nano meters to meters because the speed of light is in meters. $(1 nm = 1.0 x 10^{-9} m)$

$v=c\lambda \\v= (3.00 \times 10^8 m/s)/(6.9\times 10^-7 m) \\v = 4.35 \times 10^{14} s^{-1}$

What is the value of work done on an object when a 50–newton force moves it 15 meters in the same direction as the force?

victus00 [196]

Answer:

work done = 750 J

Explanation:

Given data:

Force on object = 50 N

Distance covered = 15 m

Work done = ?

Solution:

W = F. d

W = work done

F = force

d = distance

Now we will put the values in formula.

W = 50 N × 15 m

W = 750 N. m = 750 J

Why do covalent bonds form between elements with similar electronegativity?

sesenic [268]

A COVALENT BOND, FORMS BETWEEN ELEMENTS WITH SIMILAR ELECTRONEGATIVITY AS SHARING OF ELECTRON PAIRS BETWEEN ATOMS IS EASIER AS THEY ARE IDENTICAL.

Explanation:

Bonding atoms with similar electronegativity values form covalent bonds.

A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.

Covalent bonds form between two nonmetal atoms with identical or relatively close electronegativity values

Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons, also it is the strength an atom has to attract a bonding pair of electrons to itself.

Pure covalent bonds result when two atoms of the same electronegativity bond. This occurs only when two atoms of the same element bond with each other.

If the relative humidity is high and the temperature drops, water vapor may

meriva

If the water vapor content stays the same and the temperature drops, the relative humidity increases. If the water vapor content stays the same and the temperature rises, the relative humidity decreases. This is because colder air doesn't require as much moisture to become saturated as warmer air.

Calculate the enthalpy of the formation of butane, C4H10, using the balanced chemical equation and the standard value below:

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

+125.4 KJmol-1

Explanation:

∆H C4H10(g) = -2877.6kJ/mol

∆H C(s)=-393.5kJ/mol

∆H H2(g) = -285.8

∆H reaction= ∆Hproducts - ∆H reactants

∆H reaction= (-2877.6kJ/mol) - [4(-393.5kJ/mol) +5(-285.8)]

∆H reaction= +125.4 KJmol-1

Write the isotopic symbol for the following (show your work) a) An isotope of iodine whose atoms have 78 neutrons b) An isotope

morpeh [17]

Answer:

For a: The isotopic representation of iodine is $_{53}^{131}\textrm{I}$

For b: The isotopic representation of cesium is $_{55}^{137}\textrm{Cs}$

For c: The isotopic representation of strontium is $_{38}^{52}\textrm{Sr}$

Explanation:

The isotopic representation of an atom is: $_Z^A\textrm{X}$

where,

Z = Atomic number of the atom

A = Mass number of the atom

X = Symbol of the atom

For a:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 78

Atomic number of iodine = 53 = Number of protons

Mass number = 53 + 78 = 131

Thus, the isotopic representation of iodine is $_{53}^{131}\textrm{I}$

For b:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 82

Atomic number of cesium = 55 = Number of protons

Mass number = 55 + 82 = 137

Thus, the isotopic representation of cesium is $_{55}^{137}\textrm{Cs}$

For c:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 52

Atomic number of strontium = 38 = Number of protons

Mass number = 38 + 52 = 90

Thus, the isotopic representation of strontium is $_{38}^{52}\textrm{Sr}$
