apor lamp is similar to a mercury vapor lamp. Sodium displays a single visible emission line at 589.3 nm. Why is it better to use a mercury vapor lamp for calibration purposes

Answer: Please see answer below

Explanation:

Mecury vapor lamp is better to use than Sodium vapor light, this is because  because

---The Filaments of the lamp in sodium  emit fast moving electrons, which causes valence electrons of the sodium atoms to excite to higher energy levels which when electrons after being excited, relax by emitting yellow light which concentrates on the the  monochromatic bright yellow part of the visible spectrum which is about  580-590 or about (589nm) which will fall incident on the calibrations making it difficult to see

While

In Mercury vapor lamp, The emitted  electrons from the filaments, after having been excited  by high voltage, hit the mercury atoms but the excited electrons of mercury atoms relax and emits an  ultraviolet  uv invisible lights falling on the mecury vapour lamp to produce white light  covering  a wide range of  (380-780 nm) which is visible that is why it is used for calibrations purposes in  lightening applications.

How many moles are in 272 grams of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) ?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

8 moles

Explanation:

When we are asked to convert from grams of a substance into moles, we have to use the substance's molar mass.

Meaning that for this problem, we'll <em>use the molar mass of hydrogen peroxide</em> (H₂O₂), as follows:

  • 272 g ÷ 34 g/mol = 8 mol

There are 8 moles in 272 grams of hydrogen peroxide.

Can someone help me with this?
IrinaVladis [17]

B. The rate of particle collisions increased with a higher temperature.

An <em>inference </em>is a guess that you make <em>based on an observation</em>. You can’t see the particles, so you are guessing (a) that they exist and (b) that the rate of their collisions increases with a higher temperature.

A, C, and D are all incorrect because they are <em>observations</em> that you make.

Which compound contains both ionic and covalent
musickatia [10]

Answer:

(3) NaNO₃

Step-by-step explanation:

Sodium nitrate has ionic bonds, because it consists of Na⁺ and NO₃⁻ ions.

However, the nitrate ions have <em>covalent bonds</em> between the O atoms and the central N atoms.

(1) and (2) are <em>wrong</em>. Both N₂O₅ and HCl consist of nonmetals, so they are <em>covalent</em> compounds.

(4) is <em>wrong</em>. NaCl has <em>only ionic bonds</em> between the Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions
