A 100-watt light bulb radiates energy at a rate of 100 J/s. (The watt, a unit of power or energy over time, is defined as 1 J/s.

) If all of the light emitted has a wavelength of 525 nm , how many photons are emitted per second?

Answer

2.7956 * 10^19 photons

Givens

  • Wavelength = λ = 525 * 10^-9 meters  [1 nmeter = 1*10^-9 meters]
  • c = 3 * 10^8 meters
  • E = ???
  • W = 100  watts
  • t = 1 second
  • h= plank's Constant = 6.26 * 10^-34 J*s

Formula

E = h * c / λ

W = E / t

Solution

E = 6.26 * 10^-34 j*s * 3 * 10^8 m/s /525 * 10^-9 (m)

The meters cancel out. So do the seconds. You are left with Joules as you should be.

E =  3.577 * 10^-18 Joules

What you have found is the energy of 1 photon.

Now you have to find the Joules from the watts.

W = E/t

100 * 1 second = 100 joules

1 photon contains 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 Joules

x photon = 100 joules                        

1/x = 3.577 * 10^-18 / 100                          Cross multiply

100 = 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 * x                         Divide both sides by 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18

100/3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 = 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18x / 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18

2.7956 * 10^19 photons = x

an atom has a charge of -3 in its orbitals which statement must be true in order for this atom to have no net charge
NISA [10]

Answer:

The atom must lose its three extra electrons to make the atom over all neutral.

Explanation:

The three subatomic particles construct an atom electron, proton and neutron. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons.

If an atom have -3 charge it means three more electrons are added. In order to make the atom overall neutral three more electrons must be removed so that negative and positive charge becomes equal and cancel the effect of each other and make the atom neutral.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e⁻

Mass= 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

Proton and neutron:

While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P⁺

Symbol of neutron= n⁰

Mass of proton=1.672623×10⁻²⁷ Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg

Molecules must collide in order to react.

In order to effectively initiate a reaction, collisions must be sufficiently energetic (kinetic energy) to break chemical bonds; this energy is known as the activation energy.

As the temperature rises, molecules move faster and collide more vigorously, greatly increasing the likelihood of bond breakage upon collision.

Collision theory explains why different reactions occur at different rates, and suggests ways to change the rate of a reaction. Collision theory states that for a chemical reaction to occur, the reacting particles must collide with one another. The rate of the reaction depends on the frequency of collisions. The theory also tells us that reacting particles often collide without reacting. For collisions to be successful, reacting particles must (1) collide with (2) sufficient energy, and (3) with the proper orientation.
