12 times breathe give 240 ml of pure O_{2}. Each breathe gives 20 ml of O_{2}.

Let us consider, volume of air per breathe= x ml.

Pure O_{2} from inhaled air= \frac{20}{100}x ml and Pure O_{2} from exhaled air= \frac{16}{100}x ml.

Pure O_{2} from inhaled and exhaled air= 20 ml

So, \frac{20}{100}x + \frac{16}{100}x = 20

Therefore, x = 55.5 ml

So, volume of air per breath= 55.5 ml.

3. What is the energy of a photon whose frequency is 5.2 x 1015 Hz? Use the equation: E = hxv
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

3. 3.45×10¯¹⁸ J.

4. 1.25×10¹⁵ Hz.

Explanation:

3. Determination of the energy of the photon.

Frequency (v) = 5.2×10¹⁵ Hz

Planck's constant (h) = 6.626×10¯³⁴ Js

Energy (E) =?

The energy of the photon can be obtained by using the following formula:

E = hv

E = 6.626×10¯³⁴ × 5.2×10¹⁵

E = 3.45×10¯¹⁸ J

Thus, the energy of the photon is 3.45×10¯¹⁸ J

4. Determination of the frequency of the radiation.

Wavelength (λ) = 2.4×10¯⁵ cm

Velocity (c) = 3×10⁸ m/s

Frequency (v) =?

Next, we shall convert 2.4×10¯⁵ cm to metre (m). This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

2.4×10¯⁵ cm = 2.4×10¯⁵ cm × 1 m /100 cm

2.4×10¯⁵ cm = 2.4×10¯⁷ m

Thus, 2.4×10¯⁵ cm is equivalent to 2.4×10¯⁷ m

Finally, we shall determine the frequency of the radiation by using the following formula as illustrated below:

Wavelength (λ) = 2.4×10¯⁷ m

Velocity (c) = 3×10⁸ m/s

Frequency (v) =?

v = c / λ

v = 3×10⁸ / 2.4×10¯⁷

v = 1.25×10¹⁵ Hz

Thus, the frequency of the radiation is 1.25×10¹⁵ Hz.

SELECT ALL THAT APPLY
Luden [163]
The answer is 1 and 3. The number of atoms per molecule of these three substance is not equal. So they will not contain same number of atoms. And for gas, under same condition with same number of moles will have the same volume. The g.f.w is related to the atomic mass. So they are different.
