To find percent composition do "parts over the whole" ---> each individual mass over the total mass times 100 (since it is a percentage). 

total mass ("the whole")= 73.5 + 42.0 + 72.3 grams= 150 grams

1. Carbon %= 73.5 grams/ 150 grams x 100= 49.0%

2. Hydrogen %= 4.20 grams/ 150 grams x 100= 2.80%

3. Chlorine %= 72.3 grams/ 150 grams x 100= 48.2%

A mercury lamp emits radiation with a frequency of 5.62 x1024 Hz. Calculate the wavelength of
Nitella [24]

Answer:

wavelength = 0.534×10⁻¹⁶ m

Explanation:

Given data:

Frequency of wave = 5.62 ×10²⁴ Hz

Wavelength = ?

Solution:

Speed of photon = wavelength × frequency

wavelength = speed of photon / frequency

Now we will put the values in formula:

wavelength = 3×10⁸ m/s / 5.62 ×10²⁴ Hz

Hz = s⁻¹

wavelength = 3×10⁸ m/s / 5.62 ×10²⁴ s⁻¹

wavelength = 0.534×10⁻¹⁶ m
