8.1moles

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of water to be decomposed = 29.2g

Unknown:

Number of moles of oxygen.

Solution:

To solve this problem, we first write the balanced reaction equation :

2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂

Now convert the given mass of the water to number of moles;

Number of moles of water = $\frac{mass}{molar mass}$

Molar mass of water = 2(1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Number of moles of water = $\frac{29.2}{18}$ = 16.2moles

From the balanced reaction equation:

2 moles of water produced 1 mole of oxygen gas;

16.2 mole of water will produce $\frac{16.2}{2}$ = 8.1moles of oxygen gas

When an electron in a 2p orbital of a particular atom makes a transition to the 2s orbital, a photon of approximate wavelength 6

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The energy difference between these 2p and 2s orbitals is $3.07\times 10^{-19} J$

Explanation:

Wavelength of the photon emitted = $\lambda =646.3 nm =646.3\times 10^{-9} m$

Energy of the photon will corresponds to the energy difference between 2p and 2s orbital = E

Energy of the photon is given by Planck's equation:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }$

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\tiomes 10^{-34} Js$

c = Speed of the light = $3\times 10^8 m/s$

$E=\frac{6.626\tiomes 10^{-34} Js\times 3\times 10^8 m/s}{646.3\times 10^{-9} m}$

$E=3.07\times 10^{-19} J$

The energy difference between these 2p and 2s orbitals is $3.07\times 10^{-19} J$

Sheena has a lump of sodium, a lump of potassium and a lump of lithium, but they’ve got mixed up and she doesn’t know which one

Arada [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Just saw your request regarding answering this so here it is:

All of them belong of Group 1 in periodic table and thus are highly reactive! Pattern of reactivity for Group 1 (Alkali metals) increases as you move down the group as their radius keeps increasing and thus electrons can be easily lost. Thus, to ID the lumps, Sheena should look at their reactivity and she should get the following trend:

Most reactive: Potassium (K)

Intermediate: Sodium (Na)

Least reactive: Lithium (Li)

Hope it helps!
