<u>Given</u>:

Wavelength (λ) of the laser pulse = 545 nm = 5.45 * 10⁻⁹ m

Total energy of pulse = 4.85 mJ

<u>To determine:</u>

The number of photons in the laser of a given energy

<u>Explanation:</u>

Energy per photon (E) = hc/λ

where h = planck's constant = 6.626 *10⁻³⁴ Js

C = speed of light = 3*10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength

E = 6.626 *10⁻³⁴ Js* 3*10⁸ms-1 /5.45 * 10⁻⁹ m = 3.65 * 10⁻¹⁹ J

Now,

# photons = total energy/Energy per photon

= 4.85 * 10⁻³ J* 1 photon / 3.65 * 10⁻¹⁹ J = 1.32 * 10¹⁶ photons

Ans: the laser pulse contains 1.32 * 10¹⁶ photons

Determine the value of the equilibrium constant, Kgoal, for the reaction CO2(g)⇌C(s)+O2(g), Kgoal=? by making use of the followi

marta [7]

Answer : The value of $K_{goal}$ for the final reaction is, $1.238\times 10^{-7}$

Explanation :

The following equilibrium reactions are :

(1) $2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)\rightleftharpoons CH_3COOH(l)+2O_2$ $K_1=5.40\times 10^{-16}$

(2) $2H_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2H_2O(l)$ $K_2=1.06\times 10^{10}$

(3) $CH_3COOH(l)\rightleftharpoons 2C(s)+O_2(g)$ $K_3=2.68\times 10^{-9}$

The final equilibrium reaction is :

$CO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons C(s)+O_2(g)$ $K_{goal}=?$

Now we have to calculate the value of $K_{goal}$ for the final reaction.

First half the equation 1, 2 and 3 that means we are taking square root of equilibrium constant and then add all the equation 1, 2 and 3 that means we are multiplying all the equilibrium constant, we get the final equilibrium reaction and the expression of final equilibrium constant is:

$K_{goal}=\sqrt{K_1\times K_2\times K_3}$

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get :

$K_{goal}=\sqrt{(5.40\times 10^{-16})\times (1.06\times 10^{10})\times (2.68\times 10^{-9})}$

$K_{goal}=1.238\times 10^{-7}$

Therefore, the value of $K_{goal}$ for the final reaction is, $1.238\times 10^{-7}$

The Earth's moon is unusually large. Two popular theories of the moon's origin include the "sister world" hypothesis, which stat

Verizon [17]

Answer: D. They show that neither theory is complete and entirely correct.

Explanation:

Theory is the set of rules and principles that describe and explain a particular phenomenon (the existence of the moon in this case) and is subject to changes as new evidence emerges that gives meaning to it.

In this sense, there are many theories about the Earth's moon formation and two of the "accepted" theories are described before the question. In addition, both theories explain in a certain way the reason why the Moon is predominantly composed of elements similar to those found on Earth.

However, both theories seem to be incomplete when trying to explain our Moon's origin.

If an object has a mass of 180 g and a density of 6 g/cm^3, what is the volume of the object?

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 30 cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

$volume = \frac{mass}{density} \\$

From the question

mass = 180 g

density = 6 g/cm³

We have

$volume = \frac{180}{6} \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
