Answer:

energy

Explanation:

The photon of light that is emitted as an electron drops back to its original orbit is energy and this energy is released during de-excitation process.

The electron is jumped into higher level and back into lower level by absorbing and releasing the energy.

The process is called excitation and de-excitation.

Excitation:

When the energy is provided to the atom the electrons by absorbing the energy jump to the higher energy levels. This process is called excitation. The amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the energy difference of orbits. For example if electron jumped from K to L it must absorbed the energy which is equal the energy difference of these two level. The excited electron thus move back to lower energy level which is K by releasing the energy because electron can not stay longer in higher energy level and comes to ground state.

De-excitation:

When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations. this energy is exactly equal to the energy difference between the orbits. The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum

There are two binary compounds of mercury and oxygen. heating either of them results in the decomposition of the compound, with

grandymaker [24]

$\text{Hg} \text{O}$ and $\text{Hg}_{2} \text{O}$ .

Assuming complete decomposition of both samples,

$m(\text{Hg}) = m(\text{residure})$
$m(\text{O}) = m(\text{loss})$

First compound:

$m(\text{O}) = m(\text{loss}) = 0.6498 - 0.6018 = 0.048 \; g$
$m(\text{Hg}) = m(\text{residure}) = 0.6018 \; g$

$n = m/M$ ; $0.6498 \; g$ of the first compound would contain

$n(\text{O atoms}) = 0.048 \; g / 16 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.003 \; mol$
$n(\text{Hg atoms}) = 0.6018 \; g / 200.58 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.003 \; mol$

Oxygen and mercury atoms seemingly exist in the first compound at a $1:1$ ratio; thus the empirical formula for this compound would be $\text{Hg} \text{O}$ where the subscript "1" is omitted.

Similarly, for the second compound

$m(\text{O}) = m(\text{loss}) = 0.016 \; g$
$m(\text{Hg}) = m(\text{residure}) = 0.4172 - 0.016 = 0.4012 \; g$

$n = m/M$ ; $0.4172 \; g$ of the first compound would contain

$n(\text{O atoms}) = 0.016 \; g / 16 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.001 \; mol$
$n(\text{Hg atoms}) = 0.4012 \; g / 200.58 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.002 \; mol$

$n(\text{Hg}) : n(\text{O}) \approx 2:1$ and therefore the empirical formula

$\text{Hg}_{2} \text{O}$ .

Gas laws describe and predict the behavior of gases without attempting to explain why they happen

Nutka1998 [239]

The gas laws describe and predict the behavior of gases with an explanation and experimental data

So the given statement is False.

2) The volume of gas can be calculated based on Avagadro's law

It states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional or varies with the moles of the gas. Higher the moles more the volume, condition is the pressure and temperature are constants in the two conditions

Thus as here the pressure and temperature of nitrogen gas is kept constant

V α moles

$\frac{V1}{n1}=\frac{V2}{n2}$

Where

V1 = 6 l

n1 = 0.50 mol

V2 = ?

n2 = 0.75 mol

On putting values

V2 = 6 X 0.75 / 0.5 = 9 L

so resulting volume of the gas will be 9L
