Hydrogen atoms absorb energy so that the electrons are excited to n=4. Calculate the wavelength, in

Chemistry

Answer:

the wavelength, in nm, of the photon is 487.5 nm

Explanation:

Given:

n = 4 (excited)

n = 2 (relaxes)

Question: Calculate the wavelength, in nm, λ = ?

First, it is important to calculate the energy of the electron when it excited and then when it relaxes.

E_{1} =\frac{-13.6}{n^{2} } =\frac{-13.6}{4^{2} } =-0.85eV (excited)

E_{2} =\frac{-13.6}{2^{2} } =-3.4eV (relaxes)

The change of energy

ΔE = E₁ - E₂=-0.85 - (-3.4) = 2.55 eV = 4.08x10⁻¹⁹J

For a photon, the wavelength emitted

\lambda =\frac{hc}{delta(E)}

Here

h = Planck's constant = 6.63x10⁻³⁴J s

c = speed of light = 3x10⁸m/s

Substituting values:

\lambda =\frac{6.63x10^{-34}*3x10^{8}  }{4.08x10^{-19} } =4.875x10^{-7} m=487.5nm

13. Would you expect oxygen to form a cation or anion? How many electrons would it gain or lose? Why?
netineya [11]

Answer: C)Anion, it would gain 2 electrons to satisfy the octet rule.

Explanation:

Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.

The electrons are filled according to Afbau's rule in order of increasing energies and thus the electronic configuration of oxygen with 8 electrons is

O:8:1s^22s^22p^4

The cation is formed by loss of electrons and anions are formed by gain of electrons.  

In order to complete its octet and get stable, it gains 2 electrons and thus would form an anion.

O^{2-}:10:1s^22s^22p^6

How many mL of a 1.48 M calcium hydroxide solution are needed to neutralize 36.0 mL of a 1.63 M hydrochloric acid solution
Lelechka [254]

The volume (in mL) of calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)₂ needed for the reaction is 19.8 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

2HCl + Ca(OH)₂ —> CaCl₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

  • The mole ratio of the acid, HCl (nA) = 2
  • The mole ratio of the base, Ca(OH)₂ (nB) = 1

<h3>How to determine the volume of Ca(OH)₂ </h3>
  • Molarity of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Mb) = 1.48 M
  • Volume of acid, HCl (Va) = 36 mL
  • Molarity of acid, HCl (Ma) = 1.63 M
  • Volume of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(1.63 × 36) / (1.48 × Vb) = 2

58.68 / (1.48 × Vb) = 2

Cross multiply

2 × 1.48 × Vb = 58.68

2.96 × Vb = 58.68

Divide both side by 2.96

Vb = 58.68 / 2.96

Vb = 19.8 mL

given the following hypothetical reaction 2E(g)+ F(g)+O(g)_products.if the rate law is rate _K(e)^2(f)^-1,what is the order of t
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, considering the given information, it is not possible to figure out such order of reaction with respect to water as it is not involved in the given chemical reaction:

2E(g)+ F(g)+O(g)_

However, we can say that the order of reaction is 2 with respect to E (power of 2 in the rate law), 1 with respect to F (power of 1 in the rate law) and 0 with respect to O (power of 0 or not present in the rate law).

Regards!

To use the gas law constant R=0.0821 the unit for temp should be kelvin and the unit for pressure should be atmospheres True or
hoa [83]

It is crucial to match your units of Pressure, Volume, number of mole, and Temperature with the units of R. If you use the first value of R, which is 0.082057 L atm mol-1K-1, your unit for pressure must be atm, for volume must be liter, for temperature must be Kelvin.
