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

Phthalates used as plasticizers in rubber and plastic products are believed to act as hormone mimics in humans. The value of ΔHc
jeka94

Answer:

T_f = 25.05°C

Explanation:

Given:

the value of ΔHcomb (heat of combustion) for dimethylphthalate (C10H10O4) is = 4685 kJ/mol.

mass = 0.905g of dimethylphthalate

molar mass = 194.18g dimethylphthalate

number of moles of dimethylphthalate = ???

T_i = 21.5°C

C_{calorimeter} = 6.15 kJ/°C

T_f = ???

since we have our molar mass and mass of dimethylphthalate ;we can determine the number of moles as;

0.905g of dimethylphthalate ×  \frac{1 mole (dimethylphthalate)}{194.184g(dimethylphthalate)}

number of moles of dimethylphthalate = 0.000466 moles

Heat released = moles of dimethylphthalate × heat of combustion

=  0.000466 moles × 4685 kJ

= 21.84 kJ

∴ Heat absorbed by the calorimeter =  C_{calorimeter} (T_f-T_i} )

21.84 kJ =6.15 kJ/°C * (T_f-21,5^0C)

21.84 KJ = (6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f) - (6.15 kJ/^0C*21.5^0C)

21.84 KJ = (6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f) - 132.225 kJ

21.84 KJ + 132.225 kJ = (6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f)

154.065 kJ = (6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f)

T_f = \frac{154.065kJ}{6.15kJ/^0C}

T_f =25.05°C

Which type of weathering helped to form barrier islands
Grace [21]

Barrier islands typically have sand in the beach zone and dune field, and mud in the back-barrier. Overwash deposits sand in the back-barrier.

Barrier islands form in three ways. They can form from spits, from drowned dune ridges or from sand bars. Longshore drift is the movement of sand parallel to the shore caused by the angle of the waves breaking on the beach. ... When a storm such as a hurricane digs an inlet through the spit a barrier island is formed.
