Microwave ovens work by irradiating food with microwaves, which are absorbed by the water molecules in the food and converted to

heat. Assuming that microwave ovens emit radiation with a wavelength of 29.7 cm, calculate how many photons are emitted per second in a 600-Watt microwave oven. (1 W = 1 J/s)

Answer:

8.969×10²⁶ photons

Explanation:

From the question,

Using,

E = hc/λ........................... Equation 1

Where E = Energy of the photon, h = Planck's constant, c = speed of light, λ = wave length of the photon.

Given: h =  6.626×10⁻³⁴ J.s, c = 3×10⁸ m/s, λ = 0.297 m

Substitute into equation 1

E = 6.626×10⁻³⁴(3×10⁸)/0.297

E = 6.69×10⁻²⁵ J.

The energy of the photon in one seconds = 6.69×10⁻²⁵ J/s

If the power of the microwave oven  = 600 J/s

Then,

Number of photons emitted per seconds = 600/(6.69×10⁻²⁵)

Number of photons emitted per seconds = 8.969×10²⁶ photons

ankoles [38]

Answer:

This question appear incomplete

Explanation:

This question appear incomplete. However, fuel is formed through a natural phenomenon involving the conversion of large amount dead and decayed organisms (usually algae and zooplanktons) to combustible fuel through exposure to relatively high temperature and pressure (over millions of years) in the earth's crust. Thus, since this involves a sort of absorption of heat energy (from the earth's crust), it can be referred to be an endothermic reaction.

Which of these is not a covalent molecule?<br> 1. F2<br> 2. CO<br> 3. LiF<br> 4. NH3
beks73 [17]

LiF or lithium fluoride is the non covalent molecule or ionic compound.

Option 3.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Covalent molecules are those molecules which do have actual bonds between the atoms present in the molecule by sharing of the electrons. But in ionic molecules, there's no actual bonds between the atoms, but the oppositely charged ions are attracted towards each other by means of electrostatic force of attraction.

The molecules that are formed by the atoms with high electronegativity and electropositivity are actually ionic because the atoms with high electronegativity are able to actually gain electron readily and the atoms with high electropositivity are actually ready to give the electrons to the electronegative elements.

Lithium is highly electropositive and fluoride is highly electronegative. So they establish an ionic bond. But other molecules like fluorine molecule has both the electronegative elements, Carbon monoxide has carbon which isn't electropositive highly, and ammonia has hydrogen which isn't electropositive.

So lithium fluoride is the ionic compound.
