Answer: Photoelectric is characterized by or involving the emission of electrons from a surface by the action of light.

Photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons when a radiation of frequency higher than the threshold frequency falls on the surface of an element. The substance which undergoes photoelectric effect is called as photoelectric.

Ground state is the state representing the lowest energy state.

Excited state is the state which represents a high energy state.

An electron in ground state absorbs energy to move to the excited state.

Deuterium is the isotope of hydrogen of mass number 2, with a proton and a neutron in its nucleus. The chemistry of deuterium is

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

We know that the zero-point-energy of a C-D system is quite lower than the zero point energy of the C-H bond so the C-D bond is stronger.

Kinetic isotope effect refers to the change in the rate of reaction owing to a change of one of the atoms of the reactants by replacing it with one of its isotopes.

Since we know that the C-D bond is stronger than the C-H bond, when we replace hydrogen with deuterium in a reaction's rate determining step we experience a little lag in the rate of reaction. This is referred to as the kinetic isotope effect in physical organic chemistry.

Using the Bohr model, determine the energy, in joules, necessary to ionize a ground-state hydrogen atom. Show your calculations.

lord [1]

Answer:

The energy required to ionize the ground-state hydrogen atom is 2.18 x 10^-18 J or 13.6 eV.

Explanation:

To find the energy required to ionize ground-state hydrogen atom first we calculate the wavelength of photon required for this operation.

It is given by Bohr's Theory as:

1/λ = Rh (1/n1² - 1/n2²)

where,

λ = wavelength of photon

n1 = initial state = 1 (ground-state of hydrogen)

n2 = final state = ∞ (since, electron goes far away from atom after ionization)

Rh = Rhydberg's Constant = 1.097 x 10^7 /m

Therefore,

1/λ = (1.097 x 10^7 /m)(1/1² - 1/∞²)

λ = 9.115 x 10^-8 m = 91.15 nm

Now, for energy (E) we know that:

E = hc/λ

where,

h = Plank's Constant = 6.625 x 10^-34 J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Therefore,

E = (6.625 x 10^-34 J.s)(3 x 10^8 m/s)/(9.115 x 10^-8 m)

E = 2.18 x 10^-18 J

E = (2.18 x 10^-18 J)(1 eV/1.6 x 10^-19 J)

E = 13.6 eV
