The equation that relates both energy and wavelength is:

$e=\frac{h*c}{lambda}$

where e is the energy and lambda is the wavelength.

Therefore, as we can see from this equation, the energy of an electromagnetic wave is inversely related to the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave.

The wavelength and frequency of light are closely related. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength.

In Experiment 9, a 1.05 g sample of a mixture of NaCl (MW 58.45) and NaNO2 (MW 69.01) is reacted with excess sulfamic acid. The

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

There is 76.6 mL of nitrogen collected

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the sample = 1. 05 grams

The sample is 40.00% by mass NaNO2

MW of NaCl = 58.45 g/mol

MW of NaNO2 = 69.01 g/mol

Temperature = 22.0 °C

Pressure = 750.0 mmHg = (750/760) atm

The vapor pressure of water at 22.0°C is 19.8 mm Hg = 0.02605 atm

Step 2: Calculate mass of NaNO2

(40/100)*1.05 = 0.42 grams

Step 3: Calculate moles of NaNO2

Moles NaNO2 = 0.42 grams / 69.01 g/mol

Moles NaNO2 = 0.00608 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles of N2

For 2 moles of NaNO2 we'll get 1 mol of N2

For 0.00608 moles of NaNO2 we'll get 0.00608/2 = 0.00304 moles

Step 5: Calculate pressure of N2

P = 750.0 - 19.8 = 730.2 mmHg = (730.2/760)atm = 0.96079 atm = 97352 Pa

Step 6: Calculate volume of N2

PV = nRT

⇒ P = the pressure of N2 = 0.96079

⇒ V = the volume of N2 = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ n = moles of N2 = 0.00304 moles

⇒ R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

⇒ T = the temperature = 22°C = 295 Kelvin

V = (0.00304*0.08206*295)/0.96079

V = 0.0766 L = 76.6 mL

There is 76.6 mL of nitrogen collected

An unknown metal absorbs 61 J of heat, and its temperature increases by 29∘C. What is the heat capacity of the metal?

aniked [119]

Answer:

2.103 J/C

Explanation:

Quantity of heat = Heat Capacity * Temperature change

Heat Capacity = Quantity of heat / Temperature Change

Heat Capacity = 61/29

Heat Capacity = 2.103 J/C

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Option C:- that is equal to mass of an proton.

Explanation:

Protons and neutrons have approximately the same mass, about 1.67 × 10-24 grams, which scientists define as one atomic mass unit (amu) or one Dalton. While electron has mass of 9.31 ×10⁻¹⁹.

Why does the fact that Americans are using less fertilizer not indicate a decline in American farming?

meriva

It shows that the population is moving towards a more organic and natural way of growing crops. Rather than using fertilizer and putting toxins on the plants that we eat from, we are getting smarter and growing food naturally. Thus not killing ourselves in the process.
