The equation Eºcell = 0.0592/n logK must be used to find n and also Eºcell 
2 Al(s) + 3 Mg2+(aq) → 2 Al3+(aq) + 3 Mg(s) Al3+ +3e- --> Al Eº = -1.66 V Mg2+ +2e- -->Mg Eº = -2.37V 
To balance the equation, 6 moles of electrons must be transferred (2 Al and 3 Mg). This will be the value of n in the equation. 
To find Eºcell, you need the reduction potentials which should be given in a table, and given above. Eºcell = -1.66 - (-2.37) = 0.71 V log K = Eºcell x n/0.0592 = 0.71 x 6/0.0592 log K = 71.95 K = 10^71.95 K = 1.1x10^72

when hydrogen atom absorbs a photon, and an electron moves level 1 to level 2, what happens to the energy of the atom?
pychu [463]

Answer:

When an electron is hit by a photon of light, it absorbs the quanta of energy the photon was carrying and moves to a higher energy state. One way of thinking about this higher energy state is to imagine that the electron is now moving faster, (it has just been "hit" by a rapidly moving photon).

Explanation: pls mark brainliest :))

How many electrons can be described by the quantum numbers n = 3, l = 3, ml = 1?
Oksana_A [137]

There are a total of four quantum numbers that govern the electrons. These are the principal quantum number (n), the angular quantum number (l), the magnetic quantum number (ml) and lastly the spin quantum number (ms). Each electron has a unit set of the four quantum numbers.

Since the first 3 quantum numbers is already specified, so the remaining to be filled is the ms quantum number which can only have values of +1/2 and -1/2. So we have 2 electrons.
