What is the wavelength of gamma ray electromagnetic radiation with a frequency of 2.73x10^20 Hz?

Amanda [17]

Answer:

1.10 × 10⁻¹² m

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Atomic Structure

Speed of Light = Wavelength times Frequency

c = λν
c = 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

ν = 2.73 × 10²⁰ Hz

Step 2: Find wavelength

3.0 × 10⁸ m/s = λ(2.73 × 10²⁰ Hz)

λ = 1.0989 × 10⁻¹² m

Step 3: Check

We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules.

1.0989 × 10⁻¹² m ≈ 1.10 × 10⁻¹² m

Consider an oxygen-concentration cell consisting of two zinc electrodes. One is immersed in a water solution with a low oxygen c

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

(a) The anode electrode which comprises the zinc electrode being placed in a water solution with low oxygen concentration.

(b) Cathodic reaction is: $O_{2} + 2H_{2}O + 4e^{-}$ ⇒ $4OH^{-}$

Anodic reaction is: $Zn$ ⇒ $Zn^{2+} + 2e^{-}$

Explanation:

In the given problem, we have an oxygen-concentration cell consisting of two zinc electrodes. One is immersed in a water solution with a low oxygen concentration and the other in a water solution with a high oxygen concentration. The zinc electrodes are connected by an external copper wire.

(a) Which electrode will corrode?

The electrode that will corrode is the anode electrode which comprises the zinc electrode being placed in a water solution with low oxygen concentration.

(b) Write half-cell reactions for the anodic reaction and the cathodic reaction.

Cathodic reaction is: $O_{2} + 2H_{2}O + 4e^{-}$ ⇒ $4OH^{-}$

Anodic reaction is: $Zn$ ⇒ $Zn^{2+} + 2e^{-}$

Part B Write the balanced chemical equation for the neutralization reaction that occurs when an aqueous solution of hydrobromic

Doss [256]

Answer:

HBr(aq) + LiOH(aq) → LiBr(aq) + H2O(l)

Explanation:

A neutralization reaction is a process in which an acid, aqeous HBr reacts completely with an appropriate amount of base, aqueous LiOH to produce salt, aqueous LiBr and water, liquid H2O only.

HBr(aq) + LiOH(aq) → LiBr(aq) + H2O(l)

Acid + base → Salt + Water.

During this reaction, the hydrogen ion, H+, from the HBr is neutralized by the hydroxide ion, OH-, from the LiOH to form the water molecule, H2O.

Thus, it is called a neutralization reaction.
