Answer:

364 nm

Explanation:

The formula for the energy (E) of a photon in terms of its wavelength λ is

E = hc/λ

We can rearrange this formula to give

λ = hc/E

If E = 5.45 × 10⁻¹⁹ J, then  

\begin{array}{rcl}\lambda& = & \dfrac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \text{ J$\cdot$s} \times 2.998 \times 10^{8}\text{ m$\cdot$ s}^{-1}} {5.45 \times 10^{19} \text{ J}}\\\\& = & 3.64 \times 10^{-7} \text{ m}\\& = & \textbf{364 nm}\\\end{array}\\

How much energy does a 445 nm wave of light have? (The speed of light in a
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

To calculate questions like this, you need to make use of the equation below:

E = hν

E is the energy, h is Planck's constant, and ν is the frequency.

Also, another important formula you need for this question is the following:

ν = c / λ

ν is the frequency, c is the speed of light, and λ is the wavelength.

Therefore, E = hν = hc/λ.

Also remember to convert nm wavelength to meters.

To answer the question, E = hc/λ = ((6.626*10^-34 J•s)(3*10^8 m/s))/(4.45*10-7 m) = 4.42 • 10^-19 J = A

Which equation best represents the net ionic equation for the reaction that occurs when aqueous solutions of potassium phosphate
laiz [17]

Answer:

2PO₄³⁻ + 3Fe²⁺ → Fe₃(PO₄)₂(s)

Explanation:

In a net ionic equation you list <em>only the ions that are participating in the reaction. </em>

When potassium phosphate, K₃PO₄, reacts with iron (II) nitrate, Fe(NO₃)₂ producing iron (II) phosphate, Fe₃(PO₄)₂ that is an insoluble salt. The reaction is:

2K₃PO₄ + 3 Fe(NO₃)₂ → Fe₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6NO₃⁻ + 6K⁺

The ionic equation is:

6K⁺ + 2PO₄³⁻ + 3Fe²⁺ + 6NO₃⁻→ Fe₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6NO₃⁻ + 6K⁺

Subtracting the K⁺ and NO₃⁻ ions that are not participating in the reaction, the net ionic equation is:

<h3>2PO₄³⁻ + 3Fe²⁺ → Fe₃(PO₄)₂(s)</h3>
