Answer:

The molecular formula of the compound = P_4S_{10}

The empirical formula of the compound = P_2S_{5}

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction:

4Fe_2P+18FeS_2\rightarrow 26FeS+P_4S_{10}

Explanation:

Compound that is 27.87% P and 72.13% S by mass and has a molar mass of 444.56 g/mol.

Molar mass of compound = 444.56 g/mol

Number of phosphorus atom = x

Number of sulfur atom = y

Atomic  mass of phosphorus  31 g/mol

Atomic mass of sulfur = 32 g/mol

Percentage of element in compound :

=\frac{\text{number of atoms}\times text{Atomic mass}}{\text{molar mas of compound}}\times 100

Phosphorus :

27.87\%=\frac{x\times 31 g/mol}{444.56 g/mol}\times 100

x = 4

Sulfur :

72.13\%=\frac{y\times 32 g/mol}{444.56 g/mol}\times 100

y = 10

The molecular formula of the compound = P_4S_{10}

Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

The empirical formula of the compound = P_2S_{5}

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction:

4Fe_2P+18FeS_2\rightarrow 26FeS+P_4S_{10}

The Lyman series results from excited state hydrogen atoms transiting to
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

I can't draw diagrams on this web site but I can do with numbers I think. So an electron is moved from n = 1 to n = 5. I'm assuming I've interpreted the problem correctly; if not you will need to make a correction. I'm assuming that you know the electron in the n = 1 state is the ground state so the 4th exited state moves it to the n = 5 level.

n = 5 4th excited state

n = 4 3rd excited state

n = 3 2nd excited state

n = 2 1st excited state

n = 1 ground state

Here are the possible spectral lines.

n = 5 to 4, n = 5 to 3, n = 5 to 2, n = 5 to 1 or 4 lines.

n = 4 to 3, 4 to 2, 4 to 1 = 3 lines

n = 3 to 2, 3 to 1 = 2 lines

n = 2 to 1 = 1 line. Add 'em up. I get 10.

b. The Lyman series is from whatever to n = 1. Count the above that end in n = 1.

c.The E for any level is -21.8E-19 Joules/n^2

To find the E for any transition (delta E) take E for upper n and subtract from the E for the lower n and that gives you delta E for the transition.

So for n = 5 to n = 1, use -Efor 5 -(-Efor 1) = + something which I'll leave for you. You could convert that to wavelength in meters with delta E = hc/wavelength. You might want to try it for the Balmer series (n ending in n = 2). I think the red line is about 650 nm.

When aqueous solutions of AgNO 3 and KI are mixed, AgI precipitates. The balanced net ionic equation is ________. Ag (aq) I- (aq
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Ag⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) ==> AgCl(s)

Explanation:

The net ionic equation can be described as the equation that contains only those species which would be participated in the chemical reaction. The spectator ions are the type of the ions that are present in both sides of the chemical equation these ions could not be present in the net ionic equation

First, it is easiest if you write the compete molecular equation:

AgNO₃(aq) + KCl(aq) ⇔ AgCl(s) + KNO₃(aq)

we look up which compounds are soluble (aq) and which are not (s). In this case, silver chloride (AgCl) is not soluble.  Thus, the net ionic equation is...  

Ag⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) ==> AgCl(s)
