Simplified. The absorption spectra of ions have been used to identify the presence of the elements in the atmospheres of the sun

and other stars. What is the energy of a photon (in J) that is absorbed by He+ ions, when an electron is excited from the Bohr orbit with n = 1 to the n = 4 state? The energy of an electron in the nth level is

Answer : The energy of a photon absorbed by He^+ ions is 8.18\times 10^{-18}J

Explanation :

The energy of an electron in the nth level is,

E_n=-\frac{BZ^2}{n^2}

where,

E_n = energy of an electron in the nth level

B = constant = 2.18\times 10^{-18}J

n = number of energy level

Z = charge on nucleus or number of protons

First we have to calculate the energy of an electron for n = 1 level.

E_1=-\frac{BZ^2}{1^2}

Z = charge on nucleus or number of protons for helium atom = 2

E_1=-\frac{(2.18\times 10^{-18})\times (2)^2}{1^2}

E_1=-8.72\times 10^{-18}J

Now we have to calculate the energy of an electron for n = 4 level.

E_4=-\frac{BZ^2}{4^2}

Z = charge on nucleus or number of protons for helium atom = 2

E_4=-\frac{(2.18\times 10^{-18})\times (2)^2}{4^2}

E_4=-5.45\times 10^{-19}J

Now we have to calculate the energy of a photon that is absorbed by He^+ ions.

E=E_4-E_1

E=(-5.45\times 10^{-19})-(-8.72\times 10^{-18})

E=8.18\times 10^{-18}J

Therefore, the energy of a photon absorbed by He^+ ions is 8.18\times 10^{-18}J

Calculate the empirical formula of each of the following substances with the following compositions.
OleMash [197]

Explanation:

Note: Molar masses of elements can be found online or in the periodic table.

Moles of Magnesium

= 3.60g / (24.3g/mol) = 0.148mol.

Moles of Chlorine

= 10.65g / (35.45g/mol) = 0.300mol.

Mole ratio of Magnesium to Chlorine

= 0.148mol : 0.300mol = 1 : 2.

Hence we have the empirical formula MgCl2.

Moles of Lithium

= 9.1g / (6.94g/mol) = 1.311mol.

Moles of Oxygen

= 10.4g / (16g/mol) = 0.650mol.

Moles ratio of Lithium to Oxygen

= 1.311mol : 0.650mol = 2 : 1.

Hence we have the empirical formula Li2O.

distinguish between the climates of a coastal location and a location in the center of a large continent.
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Climatic condition in coastal regions is milder than the climatic conditions in the continental regions.

Explanation:

Climate in coastal regions is mild. It has both hot summers and winters accompanied by sea breezes. Precipitation and humidity is high in coastal areas. Both the summers and winters have a mild temperature range.

While in continental regions both summer and winters undergo extreme conditions. Summers are extremely hot and winters are extremely cold. They have wide range of climatic exposures such as rainy season, autumn season and spring season in between summer and winter season.

I need help with this, please :00000
mojhsa [17]

theoretical yield of the reaction is 121.38 g of NH₃ (ammonia)

limiting reactant is N₂ (nitrogen)

excess reactant is H₂ (hydrogen)

Explanation:

We have the following chemical reaction:

N₂ + 3 H₂ → 2 NH₃

Now we calculate the number of moles of each reactant:

number of moles = mass / molar weight

number of moles of N₂ = 100 / 28 = 3.57 moles

number of moles of H₂ = 100 / 2 = 50 moles

From the chemical reaction we see that 3 moles of H₂ are reacting with 1 moles of N₂, so 50 moles of H₂ are reacting with 16.66 moles of N₂ but we only have 3.57 moles of  N₂ available, so the limiting reactant will be N₂ and the excess reactant will be H₂.

Knowing the chemical reaction and the limiting reactant we devise the following reasoning:

if          1 mole of N₂ produce 2 moles of NH₃

then    3.57 moles of N₂ produce X moles of NH₃

X = (3.57 × 2) / 1 = 7.14 moles of NH₃

mass = number of moles × molar weight

mass of NH₃ = 7.14 × 17 = 121.38 g

theoretical yield of the reaction is 121.38 g of NH₃
