If the energy of photon emitted from the hydrogen atom is 4.09 x 10-19 J, what is

Aliun [14]

Answer:

486 nm

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Energy (E) = 4.09×10¯¹⁹ J

Wavelength (λ) =?

Next, we shall determine the frequency of the photon. This can be obtained as follow:

Energy (E) = 4.09×10¯¹⁹ J

Planck's constant (h) = 6.63×10¯³⁴ Js

Frequency (f) =?

E = hf

4.09×10¯¹⁹ = 6.63×10¯³⁴ × f

Divide both side by 6.63×10¯³⁴

f = 4.09×10¯¹⁹ / 6.63×10¯³⁴

f = 6.17×10¹⁴ Hz

Next, we shall determine the wavelength of the photon. This can be obtained as follow:

Frequency (f) = 6.17×10¹⁴ Hz

Velocity of photon (v) = 3×10⁸ m/s

Wavelength (λ) =?

v = λf

3×10⁸ = λ × 6.17×10¹⁴

Divide both side by 6.17×10¹⁴

λ = 3×10⁸ / 6.17×10¹⁴

λ = 4.86×10¯⁷ m

Finally, we shall convert 4.86×10¯⁷ m to nm. This can be obtained as follow:

1 m = 1×10⁹ nm

Therefore,

4.86×10¯⁷ m = 4.86×10¯⁷ m × 1×10⁹ nm / 1 m

4.86×10¯⁷ m = 486 nm

Therefore, the wavelength of the photon is 486 nm

The diagram below is an artist’s impression of a single atom of element Be. The neutrons are shown with stripes, the protons are

Ahat [919]

Answer is: beryllium-10.

The diagram shows that atom has 4 protons, 5 neutrons and 2 valence electrons.

Atomic number is the number of protons, which is characteristic of a chemical element, beryllium (Be) is an element with atomic number 4.

Two valence electrons means that atom is from 2. group of periodic table, only beryllium is from that group; sodium (1. group), boron (13. group) and carbon (14. group).

Beryllium-10 has 6 neutrons, so it is isotope (different number of neutrons or mass number).

That's just the tip of the iceberg" is a popular expression you may have heard. It means that what you can see is only a small p

puteri [66]

Answer:

B 1.23 g/cc

Explanation:
For something to float on seawater, the density must be less than 1.03 g/mL. If the object sinks, the density is greater than 1.03 g/mL.

Let’s examine the answer choices. Keep in mind, the ice berg is mostly below the water level.

A. 0.88 g/cc
This is less than 1.03 g/cc, which would result in floating.

B. 1.23 g/cc
This is the best answer choice. The iceberg is mostly beneath the water, but some of it is exposed. The density is greater than 1.03 g/mL, but not so much greater that it would immediately sink.

C. 0.23 g/cc
This is less than 1.03 g/cc, which would produce floating.

D. 4.14 g/cc
This is much greater than 1.03 g/cc and the result would be sinking.

Can someone answer 57 and 58

RSB [31]

Any type of electromagnetic energy's wavelengths that are shorter than a type of electromagnetic energy's wavelengths is to the left of that type of electromagnetic energy on the diagram. Hence, the wavelength of a type of energy decreases as you progress to the left on the diagram and left of the green light (in the visible spectrum).
