There are 11 Carbon atoms in the compound.

<u>Solution:</u>

Carbon atom count is the ratio of the M peak to the M+1 peak.

\text{ Number of Carbon atoms }=\frac{\text { Relative intensity of } M+1 \text { peak }}{0.011 \times \text { Relative tntensity of } M \text { peak }}

Here M peak is 57.10% and M+1 peak is 6.83%. On applying the values in the formula we get,

\frac{0.0683}{0.011\times0.571g} = 10.87\approx11

Therefore, the number of Carbon atoms in the compound are 11.

Refer the image attached below for a better understanding of M peak and M+1 peak.

The heaviest ion that has the greatest m/z value is said to be the molecular ion peak in mass spectrum.

A 100-watt light bulb radiates energy at a rate of 100 J/s. (The watt, a unit of power or energy over time, is defined as 1 J/s.
Semmy [17]

Answer

2.7956 * 10^19 photons

Givens

  • Wavelength = λ = 525 * 10^-9 meters  [1 nmeter = 1*10^-9 meters]
  • c = 3 * 10^8 meters
  • E = ???
  • W = 100  watts
  • t = 1 second
  • h= plank's Constant = 6.26 * 10^-34 J*s

Formula

E = h * c / λ

W = E / t

Solution

E = 6.26 * 10^-34 j*s * 3 * 10^8 m/s /525 * 10^-9 (m)

The meters cancel out. So do the seconds. You are left with Joules as you should be.

E =  3.577 * 10^-18 Joules

What you have found is the energy of 1 photon.

Now you have to find the Joules from the watts.

W = E/t

100 * 1 second = 100 joules

1 photon contains 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 Joules

x photon = 100 joules                        

1/x = 3.577 * 10^-18 / 100                          Cross multiply

100 = 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 * x                         Divide both sides by 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18

100/3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 = 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18x / 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18

2.7956 * 10^19 photons = x

A chemist requires 0.802 mol Na2CO3 for a reaction. How many grams does this correspond to?
Komok [63]

Answer:

Ok:

Explanation:

So grams = mols*MolarMass. Here, MolarMass (MM) = 105.99g which can be found using the periodic table. mols is given to be 0.802. We can then plug in to get that it corresponds to 85.0g.

Answer:

To help determine what type of rock it is

Explanation:

Geologists can use information such as color, hardness, grain size, texture and other aspects of the rock to figure out the classification of a rock. for example, a light blue rock with no visible grain that is translucent and has a hardness of 9 is most likely going to be a saphire. hope this helps!!!!

Methane's chemical formula is CH. Is there a bond between any of the hydrogen atoms? Why or why not? (1 point)
irinina [24]

Answer:

No, there is not because it would form H2 instead of methane if hydrogen bonded with itself.

Explanation:

from the shape of methane which is tetrahedral it's evident there's no hydrogen bond only C-H bond.
