ying close together, whereas mercury atoms vibrate around fixed positions. Copper atoms move while staying close together, whereas mercury atoms are independent of one another. Copper atoms vibrate around fixed positions, whereas mercury atoms move around while staying close together.

Answer:

  • <u><em>Copper atoms vibrate around fixed positions, whereas mercury atoms move around while staying close together. </em></u>

Explanation:

The <em>solid </em>state of matter is characterized by rigid crystalline structures, in which <em>atoms </em>can vibrate around a fixed position. That is why <em>solids</em> have definite shape and volume, and cannot flow. This is described in the last statement when it states <em>"Copper atoms vibrate around fixed positions"</em>

The <em>liquid </em>state of matter is characterized by the <em>atoms </em>being more separated than in<em> solids.</em> While the <em>atoms </em>in the liquid are not completely free to move, they can slide past the neighboring atoms, which gives them the property to flow. Therefore, the liquids, although they have a defined volume, take the form of the container. This is what the last statement describes as "mercury atoms move while remaining together"

2. A quantity of 1.922g of methanol (CH3OH) was burned in a constant-volume
Cerrena [4.2K]
Mass of methanol (CH3OH) = 1.922 g
Change in Temperature (t) = 4.20°C
Heat capacity of the bomb plus water = 10.4 KJ/oC
The heat absorbed by the bomb and water is equal to the product of the heat capacity and the temperature change.
Let’s assume that no heat is lost to the surroundings. First, let’s calculate the heat changes in the calorimeter. This is calculated using the formula shown below:
qcal = Ccalt
Where, qcal = heat of reaction
Ccal = heat capacity of calorimeter
t = change in temperature of the sample
Now, let’s calculate qcal:
qcal = (10.4 kJ/°C)(4.20°C)
= 43.68 kJ
Always qsys = qcal + qrxn = 0,
qrxn = -43.68 kJ
The heat change of the reaction is - 43.68 kJ which is the heat released by the combustion of 1.922 g of CH3OH. Therefore, the conversion factor is:

The Lyman series results from excited state hydrogen atoms transiting to
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

I can't draw diagrams on this web site but I can do with numbers I think. So an electron is moved from n = 1 to n = 5. I'm assuming I've interpreted the problem correctly; if not you will need to make a correction. I'm assuming that you know the electron in the n = 1 state is the ground state so the 4th exited state moves it to the n = 5 level.

n = 5 4th excited state

n = 4 3rd excited state

n = 3 2nd excited state

n = 2 1st excited state

n = 1 ground state

Here are the possible spectral lines.

n = 5 to 4, n = 5 to 3, n = 5 to 2, n = 5 to 1 or 4 lines.

n = 4 to 3, 4 to 2, 4 to 1 = 3 lines

n = 3 to 2, 3 to 1 = 2 lines

n = 2 to 1 = 1 line. Add 'em up. I get 10.

b. The Lyman series is from whatever to n = 1. Count the above that end in n = 1.

c.The E for any level is -21.8E-19 Joules/n^2

To find the E for any transition (delta E) take E for upper n and subtract from the E for the lower n and that gives you delta E for the transition.

So for n = 5 to n = 1, use -Efor 5 -(-Efor 1) = + something which I'll leave for you. You could convert that to wavelength in meters with delta E = hc/wavelength. You might want to try it for the Balmer series (n ending in n = 2). I think the red line is about 650 nm.

2-A gas sample is found to contain 39.10% carbon, 7.67% hydrogen, 26.11%
aleksandrvk [35]

The molecular formula :

C₆H₁₄O₃PF

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

39.10% carbon, 7.67% hydrogen, 26.11%  oxygen, 16.82% phosphorus, and 10.30% fluorine.

Required

The molecular formula

Solution

mol ratio :

C = 39.1 : 12 = 3.258

H = 7.67 : 1 = 7.67

O = 26.11 : 16 = 1.632

P = 16.82 : 31 = 0.543

F = 10.3 : 19 = 0.542

Divide by 0.542

C = 6

H : 14

O = 3

P = 1

F = 1

The empirical formula :

C₆H₁₄O₃PF

(The empirical formula)n = the molecular formula

(C₆H₁₄O₃PF)=184.1

(6.12+14.1+3.16+31+19)n=184.1

(184)n=184.1

n = 1
