In a hypothetical atom, electron N transitions between energy levels, giving off orange light in the transition. In the same ato

m, electron P gives off violet light when it transitions between energy levels. Did electron N or electron P have a transition that covered a greater energy difference? The electromagnetic spectrum has been provided to assist you in answering the question, and you should reference info from the spectrum in your answer. Be clear and fully explain how you arrived at your answer.

Answer : Electron P has greater energy difference than the Electron N.

Explanation :  

Wavelength range of violet light = 400 - 500 nm

Wavelength range of orange light = 600 - 700 nm

The Planck's equation is,

E=\frac{h\times c}{\lambda}

where,

E = energy of light

c = speed of light

\lambda = wavelength of light

According to the Planck's equation, wavelength and energy follow inverse relation. As the wavelength increases, energy decreases.

From the given spectrum, the wavelength of violet light is less. We conclude that When electron P gives violet light on transition it means that energy difference between the energy level was high.

From the given spectrum, the wavelength of orange light is more. We conclude that When electron N  gives orange light on transition it means that energy difference between the energy level was low.

So, Electron P which gives violet light on transition has greater energy difference than the Electron N.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Yes, electron N or electron P have a transition that covered a greater energy difference.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • N electron giving orange light means light wave of 650 to 700 nm wavelength according to electromagnetic spectrum.
  • P electron giving Violet light means light wave with a wavelength of 400 nm.
  • As wave length and energy of a wave is inversely proportional to each other.
  • It means N electron light with long wavelength has low energy.
  • P electron light with short wave length has high energy.
  • Hence both electrons have transitions of great energy difference.

What will be the pressure of 2.00 mol of an ideal gas at a temperature of 20.5 degrees Celsius and a volume of 62.3L?
erastova [34]

.774atm

First, look at what you have and look at the equations you can use to solve this problem. The best equation would be PV=nRT.

P being pressure, V being volume, n being moles, R being the gas constant, and T being temperature.

Before you start doing any of the math, make sure of two things. Since you're looking for pressure, you'll need a gas constant. When I did the problem, I used the gas constant of atm or atmospheres which is .0821.

Also! Remember to always convert celsius into kelvin, to do this, add 273 to the given celsius degree. After this is all set and done, your equation should look like this:

P = \frac{2 x .0821 x 293.5}{62.3}

The reason that the equation is divided by the volume is due to the fact that you need to isolate the variable or pressure.

Multiply everything on the top and divide by the bottom and you should receive the final answer of .774atm.

Hope this helps!

initial volume of the argon sample = 5.93L according to Boyle's law

What is Boyle's law ?

Boyle's law, also known as Mariotte's law, is a relationship describing how a gas will compress and expand at a constant temperature. The pressure (p) of a given quantity of gas changes inversely with its volume (v) at constant temperature, according to this empirical connection, which was established by the physicist Robert Boyle in 1662. In equation form, this means that pv = k, a constant.

According to Boyle's law

P1/V1 = P2/V2

P1 = initial pressure

P2 = final pressure

V1 =initial volume

V2= final volume

V1 = P1*V2/P2

V1 = 2.32*18.3/7.16 = 5.93L

initial volume of the argon sample = 5.93L according to Boyle's law

DUE TOMORROW!!! 15 POINTS
Lunna [17]

Answer:

A. write balanced chemical equation (including states), for this process.

Explanation:

Almost all hydrocarbon 'burn' reactions involve oxygen; it's by far the most reactive substance in air.  

Hydrocarbon combustions always involve  

[some hydrocarbon] + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + steam.  

C6H6(l) + O2 (g)--> CO2 (g)+ H2O (g)

Balance carbon, six on each side:  

C6H6(l) + O2 (g)--> 6CO2 (g)+ H2O (g)

Balance hydrogen, six on each side:  

C6H6(l) + O2 (g)--> 6CO2(g) + 3H2O (g)

Now, we have fifteen oxygens on the right and O2 on the left.  

Two ways to deal with that. We can use a fraction:  

C6H6 (l)+ (15/2)O2 (g)--> 6CO2 (g)+ 3H2O (g)

Or, if you prefer to have whole number coefficients, double everything  

to get rid of the fraction:  

2C6H6 (l)+ 15O2 (g)--> 12CO2 (g)+ 6H2O (g)

With the SATP states thrown in...  

C6H6(l) + (15/2)O2(g) --> 6CO2(g) + 3H2O(g)
