The color emitted from a hydrogen spectrum is not white because only colors with certain energy levels can be observed.

Explanation:

White light is generally a combination of seven colors having different wavelengths from the range of 400nm to 700nm, with violet having the wavelength of 700nm and red having 400nm. This shows that white light cannot be given a separate wavelength.

During the hydrogen emission spectrum, the colors with higher wavelengths are observed in the emission and thus there is no white light.

Answer:

$K_{p}=4.35\times 10^{-4}$

Explanation:

We know, $K_{p}=K_{c}(RT)^{\Delta n}$

where, R = 0.0821 L.atm/(mol.K), T is temperature in kelvin and $\Delta n$ is difference in sum of stoichiometric coefficient of products and reactants

Here $\Delta n=(2)-(2+1)=-1$ and T = 311 K

So, $K_{p}=(0.0111)\times [(0.0821L.atm.mol^{-1}.K^{-1})\times 311K]^{-1}=4.35\times 10^{-4}$

Hence value of equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure $(K_{p})$ is $4.35\times 10^{-4}$

katrin [286]

Answer:

bent

Explanation:

The chlorite ion has been pictured in the image attached with its two main resonance contributors.

The ion has four regions of electron density as shown. On the basis of the VSEPR theory, we expect a tetrahedral geometry.

However, the ion is bent due to the effect of the lone pairs on chlorine which is the central atom in the ion. This distorts the bond angle of the ion hence the ion has a bent molecular geometry.

Does volume alone determine whether an object will sink or float? Explain.

Bond [772]

Answer:

no.

Density (mass / volume) determines whether an object floats or sinks. If the object is less dense than the medium in which it has been submerged, it floats. if it is more dense, it sinks. Volume will definitely determine if a steel ship floats, as steel is far more dense than water.
