How many photons are contained in a burst of yellow light (589 nm) from a sodium lamp that contains 623 kJ of energy?
Goryan [66]
<span>First we need to find the energy of one photon with a wavelength of 589 nm. E = hc / wavelength E = (6.63 x 10^{-34} J s)(3 x 10^8 m/s) / (589 x 10^{-9} m) E = 3.3769 x 10^{-19} Joules To find N, the number of photons, we need to divide the total energy by the energy of each photon. N = 623000 J / 3.3769 x 10^{-19} Joules N = 1.84 x 10^{24} photons There are 1.84 x 10^{24} photons in the burst of yellow light.</span>

A volume of 30.0 mL of a 0.140 M HNO3 solution is titrated with 0.570 M KOH. Calculate the volume of KOH required to reach the e
igomit [66]

Answer:

7.37 mL of KOH

Explanation:

So here we have the following chemical formula ( already balanced ), as HNO3 reacts with KOH to form the products KNO3 and H2O. As you can tell, this is a double replacement reaction,

HNO3 + KOH → KNO3 + H2O

Step 1 : The moles of HNO3 here can be calculated through the given molar mass (  0.140 M HNO3 ) and the mL of this nitric acid. Of course the molar mass is given by mol / L, so we would have to convert mL to L.

Mol of NHO3 = 0.140 M * 30 / 1000 L = 0.140 M * 0.03 L = .0042 mol

Step 2 : We can now convert the moles of HNO3 to moles of KOH through dimensional analysis,

0.0042 mol HNO2 * ( 1 mol KOH / 1 mol HNO2 ) = 0.0042 mol KOH

From the formula we can see that there is 1 mole of KOH present per 1 moles of HNO2, in a 1 : 1 ratio. As expected the number of moles of each should be the same,

Step 3 : Now we can calculate the volume of KOH knowing it's moles, and molar mass ( 0.570 M ).

Volume of KOH = 0.0042 mol * ( 1 L / 0.570 mol ) * ( 1000 mL / 1 L ) = 7.37 mL of KOH

If 4.4 moles of al react, how many moles of h2so4 are consumed?
astraxan [27]
2 Al + 3 H₂SO₄ = Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 3 H₂

2 moles Al -------- 3 moles H₂SO₄
4.4 moles Al ------ ?

moles H₂SO₄ = 4.4 x 3 / 2

moles H₂SO₄ = 13.2 / 2

= 6.6 moles of H₂SO₄

Unit 1- Unit Assessment (Matter &amp; Density)
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 11 g/mL</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

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

From the question

mass = 3025 g

volume = 275 mL

We have

density =  \frac{3025}{275}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>11 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you
