Answer : The wavelength of the light emitted is, 5.66\times 10^{-24}m

Explanation :

The energy level of quantum particle in a one-dimensional box is given as:

E_n=\frac{n^2h^2}{8mL^2}

or,

\Delta E=E_9-E_8=\frac{n_9^2h^2}{8mL^2}-\frac{n_8^2h^2}{8mL^2}

\Delta E=E_9-E_8=\frac{h^2}{8mL^2}\times (n_9^2-n_8^2)

where,

E_n = change in energy

n = energy level

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

m = mass of electron = 9.109\times 10^{-31}kg

L = length of a one-dimensional box = 5.4nm=5.4\times 10^{-9}m

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\Delta E=E_9-E_8=\frac{(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)^2}{8\times (9.109\times 10^{-31}kg)\times (5.4\times 10^{-9}m)^2}\times [(9)^2-(8)^2]

\Delta E=E_9-E_8=3.5124\times 10^{-2}J

Now we have to calculate the wavelength of the light emitted.

\Delta E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where,

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^{8}m/s

\lambda = wavelength of the light

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

3.5124\times 10^{-2}J=\frac{(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times (3\times 10^{8}m/s)}{\lambda}

\lambda=5.66\times 10^{-24}m

Thus, the wavelength of the light emitted is, 5.66\times 10^{-24}m

What is the molar solubility in water of ag2cro4 ? (the ksp for ag2cro4 is 8 x 10-12. )
nikitadnepr [17]

The molar solubility in water of Ag₂CrO₄ is 2.52 * 10⁻⁴ M .

<h3>How do you define Solubility ?</h3>

The measure of the degree to which a substance gets dissolved in a solvent to become a solution.

The formula for determination of molar solubity is

\rm K_{sp} =  [A^+]^a [B^-]^b

\rm K_{sp}          = solubility product constant

\rm [A^+]^a  =     cation in an aqueous solution

\rm  [B^-]^b  = anion in an aqueous solution

a, b          = relative concentrations of a and b

We have the data given as

\rm K_{sp} for Ag₂CrO₄ is 8 x 10⁻¹²

For Silver chromate , the solubility would be only one-half of the Ag⁺ concentration.

We denote the solubility of Ag₂CrO₄ as S mol L⁻¹.

Then for a saturated solution, we have

[Ag⁺]=2S

[CrO₂⁴⁻]=S

the relation between the solubility and the solubility product constant depends on the stoichiometry of the dissolution reaction

(2S)²(S)=4S³ = 8 * 10⁻¹²

S=∛ (2*10⁻¹²)

S= 1.26 * 10⁻⁴ M

2S = 2.52 * 10⁻⁴ M

Therefore the molar solubility in water of Ag₂CrO₄ is 2.52 * 10⁻⁴ M .

marishachu [46]
Because if they are submerged in the solvent, they would dissolve! This would prevent them from seperating and not allow you to actually record anything
