Describe how an atom of copper can emit different colors of light. * Your answer

Chemistry
1 answer:
miv72 [106K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Electrons on atoms have different amounts of energy proportional to the distance of their orbital from the nucleus. So in the flame, electrons get excited and pushed to higher energy levels by the heat energy. When they fall back down, they give off photons of light of different colors, based upon how far they fall.

Water is amphoteric. If it reacts with a compound that is a stronger acid than itself, water acts as a
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Water acts as a base in the presence of a strong acid

Explanation:

Water,being an amphoteric compound, can act both as an acid and as a base.

In the presence of an acid , water acts as a base but in the presence of a base, water acts as an acid.

Find the pH of the equivalence point and the volume (mL) of 0.0372 M NaOH needed to reach the equivalence point in the titration
elixir [45]

Answer:

8.54

Explanation:

At equivalence point :  

42.2 X 0.052 = Vol. NaOH X 0.0372

Vol of NaOH = 2.1944/0.0372 = 58.99 ml

So volume of NaOH recquired to reach equivalence point = 58.99 ml

Number of miliimoles of CH3COOH = molarity X volume in ml = 42.2 X 0.052             = 2.1944 millimoles

Number of millimoles of NaOH = 58.99 X 0.0372 = 2.1944

Now CH₃COOH and NaOH reacts to give CH₃COONa according to the reaction :

CH₃COOH + NaOH ------> CH₃COONa + H₂O

1 mole of CH₃COOH reacts with 1 mole of NaOH to give 1 mole of CH₃COONa  

So 2.1944 millimoles of CH₃COOH will react with 2.1944 millimoles of NaOH to give 2.1944 millimoles of CH₃COONa

So all the acid (CH₃COOH) and base (NaOH) has been converted into salt (CH₃COONa) so there is no acid or base left.

Now molarity of CH₃COONa = number of millimoles of CH₃COONa/total volume in ml = 2.1944/(58.99 + 42.2) = 2.1944/101.19 = 0.02169 M

So using the hydrolysis equation :  

pH = 1/2 [ pKw + pKa + log c ]  

Ka for acetic acid = 1.75 X 10⁻⁵  

so pKa = -log (1.75 X 10⁻⁵) = 4.74  

Kw = 10⁻¹⁴

so pKw = -log 10⁻¹⁴ = 14

c = 0.02169  

so log c = log 0.02169 = -1.66  

putting the values....  

pH = 1/2 [14 + 4.74 - 1.66 ]  

pH = 1/2 [ 17.08] = 8.54

Control of Blood pH by respiratory rate.
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

A) During this procedure ( hypoventilation ) The CO2 in the arterial blood vessels and the lungs increases and this drives the PH level in the system lower, and the equilibrium will shift to the right. this is because the Blood-PH level is controlled by CO2 - bicarbonate buffer system

B) The blood PH may rise to 7.60 during Hyperventilation because the removal of CO2 from the lungs causes the increase in  H^+ which is directly proportional to the increase in Blood PH levels

C) Hyper ventilation before a dash would be useful because it will remove excessive Hydrogen ions and and raise the Blood PH levels in preparedness of the production of acids like Lactic acid

Explanation:

A) During this procedure ( hypoventilation ) The CO2 in the arterial blood vessels and the lungs increases and this drives the PH level in the system lower, and the equilibrium will shift to the right. this is because the Blood-PH level is controlled by CO2 - bicarbonate buffer system

CO_{2} +H_{2} O ⇄ H^+ + HCO^-_{3}

B) The blood PH may rise to 7.60 during Hyperventilation because the removal of CO2 from the lungs causes the increase in  H^+ which is directly proportional to the increase in Blood PH levels

C) Hyper ventilation before a dash would be useful because it will remove excessive Hydrogen ions and and raise the Blood PH levels in preparedness of the production of acids like Lactic acid

Two liquids- one polar, one nonpolar- have the same molar mass. Which one has the higher boiling point?
victus00 [196]

Answer:

D. the polar liquid will have the higher boiling point, since its molecules have dipole-dipole interactions.

Explanation:

<em>Dipole-Dipole interactions</em> take place only between polar molecules.

They consist of attractions between the negative end of a polar molecule and the positive end of another polar molecule. For example, between the O atom and the H atom in water.

These attractions are not present in a non-polar liquid, so its molecules will be more loosely held together and its boiling point will be lower.
