A student blows up a ballon and then places it in a very cold freezer the ballon shrunk why did it shrink

Chemistry

Rashid [163]3 years ago

As temperature increases the speed of the molecules as well as the pressure also increases. Therefore the number collisions against the sides of the container (in this case the balloon) will increase because the pressure increased. When the temperature decreased when the balloon was put in a freezer the molecules slowed down, and the pressure decreased, so the number of collisions with the side of the balloon also decreased and the balloon shrunk. Hope that helps!

The teal line of the hydrogen emission spectrum has a wavelength of 486.0 nm. A hydrogen emission spectrum has a violet, a blue,
Sloan [31]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be "4.08 × 10⁻¹⁹ Joule".

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength, λ = 486.0 nm

As we know,

E=h\upsilon =\frac{hc}{\lambda}

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒          =\frac{1241.5 \ ev\ nm}{486 \ nm}

⇒          =2.554 \ ev

∴ 1 ev = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

Now,

Energy, E=2.554\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}

⇒               =4.08\times 10^{-19} Joule

Why are halogens reactive?
erica [24]

<u>Halogens are reactive because:</u>

They have high electronegativity and also high nuclear charge. So, they are reactive and also gain an electron when they react with other elements.

Since they are very reactive, halogens are very harmful to living organisms. Some of the halogens are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, astatine. These are mostly non metals. Fluorine is one of the most reactive gas and also very toxic gas. When Fluorine reacts with glass along with small amounts of water, it forms silicon tetra fluoride (SiF4). Hence fluorine should be handled with substances like the inert organofluorine compound Teflon.
