Regarding the Lyman series of hydrogen, calculate the frequency of the n = 5 line.

1 answer:

4 0

The Lyman series can be expressed in the formula 1/λ=RH(1−1/n2) where RH=1.0968×107m−1=13.6eVhc

Where n is a natural number greater than or equal to 2 (i.e. n = 2,3,4,...). Therefore, the lines seen in the image above are the wavelengths corresponding to n=2 on the right, to n=∞on the left (there are infinitely many spectral lines, but they become very dense as they approach to n=∞ (Lyman limit), so only some of the first lines and the last one appear).
The wavelengths (nm) in the Lyman series are all ultraviolet
:2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
Wavelength (nm) 121.6 102.6 97.3 95 93.8 93.1 92.6 92.3 92.1 91.9 91.18 (Lyman limit)
In your case for the n=5 line you have to replace "n" in the above formula for 5 and you should get a value of 95 x 10^-9 m for the wavelength. then you have to use the other equation that convert wavelength to frequency.

Use the standard reaction enthalpies given below to determine ΔH°rxn for the following reactionP4(g) + 10 Cl2(g) → 4PCl5(s) ΔH°r

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Therefore $\bigtriangledown H^\circ_{rxn}$ = -1835 KJ

Explanation:

Enthalpy is denoted by H.

Enthalpy: Total heat change in a chemical reaction is called enthalpy.

The change of entalpy of a reaction is denoted by $\bigtriangledown H^\circ_{rxn}$

Hass's Law:The change in enthalpy of any process can be determined by calculating the sum of change in enthalpy of each of the steps involved in the process.

g= gas

S= solid

P₄(g)+10Cl₂(g)→ 4Cl₅(s) $\bigtriangledown H^\circ_{rxn}$ =?

PCl₅(s)→ PCl₃(g)+Cl₂(g) .......(1) $\bigtriangledown H^\circ_{rxn}$ = +157KJ

P₄(g)+6Cl₂(g)→ 4PCl₃(g).............(2) $\bigtriangledown H^\circ_{rxn}$ = -1207 KJ

If we flip a reaction the value of enthalpy will be change positive to negative or nagative to positive but the numerical value will be remain same.

We need rearrange the equation (1) because in the required equation Cl₂ is on the left side. So we flip the first equation.

PCl₃(g)+Cl₂(g)→PCl₅(s)......(3) $\bigtriangledown H^\circ_{rxn}$ = -157KJ

Multiplying 4 with equation (3)

4 PCl₃(g)+4Cl₂(g)→4PCl₅(s)......(4) $\bigtriangledown H^\circ_{rxn}$ =4×( -157)KJ= -628 KJ

Adding equation (2) and (4) we get

P₄(g)+6Cl₂(g)+4 PCl₃(g)+4Cl₂(g)→4PCl₃(g)+4PCl₅(s) $\bigtriangledown H^\circ_{rxn}$ =( -1207-628)KJ

⇒P₄(g)+10Cl₂(g)→4PCl₃(g)-4PCl₃(g)+4PCl₅(s) $\bigtriangledown H^\circ_{rxn}$ = - 1835KJ

⇒P₄(g)+10Cl₂(g)→ 4Cl₅(s) $\bigtriangledown H^\circ_{rxn}$ = -1835 KJ

Therefore $\bigtriangledown H^\circ_{rxn}$ = -1835 KJ

Physical properties of reactants: Physical properties of products: 12.

dolphi86 [110]

Answer: The reactants are baking soda and vinegar. Baking soda is a white powder, and vinegar is a clear liquid. The products of this reaction are carbon dioxide, water, and sodium acetate. Carbon dioxide is a colorless gas, water is a colorless liquid, and sodium acetate is a white crystalline powder.

A chemical change can be seen in how the molecular formulas of the products are different from the reactants, since the reactants have chemically changed into completely different molecules.

Hope this helps
