Answer:

91.6 nm

Explanation:

The energy of the hydrogen atom can be calculated by the emission of a photon. When an electron is excited it goes from to the next energetic level, and when it returns to its ground state, it emits a photon. Hydrogen has only one electron, which is at the level n = 1. So, the equation is given:

E = (-21.7x10⁻¹⁹J)/1²

E = -21.7x10⁻¹⁹J

The energy of the photon is the energy absorbed, and because of that is positive (the opposite of the energy released by the electron). This energy can be calculated by:

E = h*c/λ

Where h is the Planck's constant (6.626x10⁻³⁴ J.s), c is the speed of the light (3.00x10⁸ m/s), and λ is the wavelength of the photon.

21.7x10⁻¹⁹ = 6.626x10⁻³⁴ * 3.00x10⁸/λ

λ = 9.16x10⁻⁸ m

λ = 91.6 nm

How many atoms are found in 12.0 grams of Helium?
Allisa [31]
<span>Each mole contains Avagodro's number of atoms i.e. 6.023x10^23, so

3 moles x 6.023x10^23 atoms/mole = 18.069x10^23 atoms = 1.8x19^24 atoms </span>

What volume will 12.0 g of oxygen gas occupy at 25 c and a pressure of 52.7 kpa?
Stolb23 [73]
We can use the ideal gas law equation to find the volume occupied by oxygen gas
PV = nRT
where ;
P - pressure - 52.7 kPa
V - volume 
n - number of oxygen moles - 12.0 g / 32 g/mol = 0.375 mol
R - universal gas constant - 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹
T - temperature - 25 °C + 273 = 298 K
substituting the values in the equation 
52 700 Pa x V = 0.375 mol x 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹ x 298 K
 V = 17.6 L
volume of the gas is 17.6 L

How might a hurricane in Florida cause anomalous nest data
cluponka [151]
Assuming that the nests are bird's nests and the data is a data gathered by the biologists about those nests. 
A hurricane would cause some damage to the nests that is existent and cause a remarkably low count even during breeding season. It would also influence later birds because of population weakening due to the hurricane.
