A chemist identifies compounds by identifying bright lines in their spectra. She does so by heating the compounds until they glo

w, sending the light through a diffraction grating, and measuring the positions of first-order spectral lines on a detector 15.0 cm behind the grating. Unfortunately, she has lost the card that gives the specifications of the grating. Fortunately, she has a known compound that she can use to calibrate the grating. She heats the known compound, which emits light at a wavelength of 461 nm, and observes a spectral line 9.95 cm from the center of the diffraction pattern.PART A:What is the wavelength emitted by compound A that have spectral line detected at position 8.55 cm?PART B:What is the wavelength emitted by compound B that have spectral line detected at position and 12.15 cm?

Answer:

PART A: 412.98 nm

PART B: 524.92 nm

Explanation:

The equation below can be used for a diffraction grating of nth order image:

n*λ = d*sinθ_{n}

Therefore, for first order images, n = 1 and:

λ = d*sinθ_{1}.

The angle θ_{1} can be calculated as follow:

tan θ_{1}  = 9.95 cm/15.0 cm = 0.663 and

θ_{1} = tan^{-1} (0.663) = 33.56°

Thus: d =λ/sin θ_{1}  = 461/sin 33.56° = 833.97 nm

PART A:

For a position of 8.55 cm:  

tan θ_{1}  = 8.55 cm/15.0 cm = 0.57 and

θ_{1} = tan^{-1} (0.57) = 29.68°

Therefore:

λ =d*sin θ_{1}  = 833.97*sin 29.68° = 412.98 nm

PART B:

For a position of 12.15 cm:  

tan θ_{1}  = 12.15 cm/15.0 cm = 0.81 and

θ_{1} = tan^{-1} (0.81) = 39.01°

Therefore:

λ =d*sin θ_{1}  = 833.97*sin 39.01° = 524.92 nm

Please help quick the 6th question is “What is a catalyst?” (include all three parts)
allochka39001 [22]
1. The reaction is exothermic.

2. I know this because the delta H is a negative number. (-802.4 kJ)

3. This means that this reaction releases heat.

Two colleagues are measuring the melting point of a substance. They observe two ranges of melting point, at 134-137 °C and 132-1
marissa [1.9K]

Explanation:

impurities affect both melting point and boiling point

in the case of melting point it lowers the melting point

so I guess one of the samples Ie contained impurities

I would always start by balancing your carbons, and then balancing the rest from there.

1. C2H5OH + O2 —> CO2 + H2O - You have two carbons on the left and one on the right. Multiply CO2 by 2.
C2H5OH + O2 —> 2CO2 + H2O

Now balance hydrogen. You have 6 on the left and 2 on the right. Multiply H2O by 3.
C2H5OH + O2 —> 2CO2 + 3H2O

Now balance oxygen. You have 3 on the left and 7 on the right. You need 4 more on the left. Don’t multiply the C2H5OH by anything because that will change the numbers of everything else too. Multiply O2 by 3 instead.
C2H5OH + 3O2 —> 2CO2 + 3H2O

Check that all atoms are now balanced, and you’re good.

2. Same process as before.

First carbons - C3H8 + O2 —> 3CO2 + H2O
Then hydrogens - C3H8 + O2 —> 3CO2 + 4H2O
Then oxygens - C3H8 + 5O2 —> 3CO2 + 4H2O

3. Same again.

Carbons) C6H12O6 + O2 —> 6CO2 + H2O
Hydrogens) C6H12O6 + O2 —> 6CO2 + 6H2O
Oxygens) C6H12O6 + 6O2 —> 6CO2 + 6H2O

4. The general reaction for a combustion reaction is a hydrocarbon reacting with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water.
