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

Of the five salts listed below, which has the highest concentration of its cation in water? assume that all salt solutions are s
Zigmanuir [339]
First of all, I need to know what these five salts are. Luckily, I found a similar problem from another website which is shown in the attached picture. The Ksp is the solubility product constant. It follows the formula:

Ksp = [cation concentration]ᵃ[anion concentration]ᵇ
where a and b are the subscripts of the metal and nonmetal, respectively. 

For the solutions ahead, let x be the concentration of the cation.

A.  The formula is PbCr₂O₄.
2.8×10⁻¹³ = [x][x]
Solving for x, x = 5.29×10⁻⁷ M

B. The formula is Co(OH)₂. 
 1.3×10⁻¹⁵ = [x][x]²
Solving for x, x = 1.09×10⁻⁵ M

C. The formula is CoS. 
 5×10⁻²² = [x][x]
Solving for x, x = 2.24×10⁻¹¹ M

D. The formula is Cr(OH)₃. 
 1.6×10⁻³⁰ = [x][x]³
Solving for x, x = 3.56×10⁻⁶ M

E. The formula is Ag₂S. 
 6×10⁻⁵¹ = [x]²[x]
Solving for x, x = 1.82×10⁻¹⁷ M

<em>Thus,the highest concentration is letter B, Cobalt (II) Hydroxide.</em>

what is the concentration of hydroxide ions after 50.0 ml of 0.250 m naoh is added to 120 ml of 0.200 m na2so4? please show all
Galina-37 [17]

The concentration of the hydroxide ions after 50 ml of 0.250M NaOH is added to 120ml of 0.200M Na2SO4 is 7.35 x 10^-2 M.

What is meant by concentration?

Concentration is the total amount of solute present in the given volume of solution. this is expressed in terms of molarity, molality, mole fraction, normality etc. The term concentration mostly refers to the solvents and solutes present in the solution.

Concentration of hydroxide ions can be calculated by,

M (OH^-) = V (NaOH) x M (NaOH) / V (total) = 50ml x 0.250M / 50ml + 120ml = 0.0735M = 7.35 x 10^-2 M.

where M (OH^-) = concentration of hydroxide ions, V(NaOH) = volume of NaOH, M(NaOH) = concentration of NaOH.

Therefore, the concentration of the hydroxide ions after 50 ml of 0.250M NaOH is added to 120ml of 0.200M Na2SO4 is 7.35 x 10^-2 M.

Gases do not settle at the bottom of the vessel why​
bulgar [2K]

Explanation:

Gases are very less denser also, they've negligible intermolecular force of attraction between the particles of the gas. So, they all are free to roam seperately and hence making a negligible volume for which they become heavy settle down.
