It moves to a higher energy level<span />
Sonbull [250]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

When energy is supplied to an atom then its electron(s) absorb the energy and therefore, they tend to move from a lower energy level to higher energy level.

And, when this electron moves from higher energy level to lower energy level then excess of energy absorbed by it is released in the form of visible light or radiation.

Therefore, we can conclude that when an atom is exposed to an energy source such as electricity then its electrons move towards higher energy level generating light of visible color.

If the spheres represent a potassium atom and a potassium ion, which best represents the ion?
saul85 [17]
If the potassium ions were represented by spheres, the smaller one is the ion and the bigger one is the (neutral) atom.

Generally, metallic atoms (such as potassium) readily form cations (positively-charged ions) by losing electrons in their outer shells. By losing these electrons, the atoms are expected to be smaller in size. However for nonmetals, they readily gain electrons to form anions (negatively-charged ions). By gaining these electrons in their outer orbital shells, the ions generally then becomes larger.

A 0.420 M Ca(OH)2 solution was prepared by dissolving 64.0 grams of Ca(OH)2 in enough water. What is the total volume of the sol
nikitadnepr [17]

The volume of the solution is given below which can be calculated using the molarity formula as 2.18 litres.

<h3>Define the molarity of a solution.</h3>

Molarity (M) is the amount of a substance in a certain volume of solution. Molarity is defined as the moles of a solute per litres of a solution.

Molality = \frac{Moles \;solute}{Volume \;of \;solution \;in \;litre}

Given data:

M= 0.420M

mass = 64.0 grams

Molar Mass= 74g/mol

To find:

The volume of solution=?

The calculation for a number of moles:

n= \frac{m}{M}

n= \frac{64}{70}

n= 0.91 moles

Molarity=  \frac{n}{V}

V= \frac{0.91}{0.420}

V= 2.1768 litres

Thus, the volume of the solution is 2.18 litres.

Convert .0150 km to meters and express the correct significant figures
weeeeeb [17]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

15.0 meters

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Kilometers are units used to measure length.
  • Length is also measured using other units which include meters, centimeters, decimeter, millimeter, etc
  • To convert one unit to another we use conversion factors.

In this case to know inter-conversion between units of measuring length, we consider the following;

Kilometer(km)

10

Hectometer(Hm)

10

Decameter(dam)

10

Meter (M)

10

Decimeter (dm)

10

Centimeter (cm)

10

Millimeter (mm)

Therefore, to convert km to meter we use the conversion factor (10×10×10) 1000 m/km.

Thus;

0.0150 km is equivalent to;

= 0.0150 km × 1000 m/Km

= 15.0 meters

Thus, 0.0150 km is equivalent to 15.0 meters.
