Answer:

Warm Room

Explanation:

Let's establish two things first.

  1. Sound is a form of energy.  
  2. Waves are made by the oscillation (up, down and sideways movement) of partials. When partials oscillate, they transfer energy by bumping into each other.

<em>Sound wave are waves that are created by the </em><em>oscillation of air particles </em><em>and carry </em><em>sound energy</em><em> from point A to point B.  </em>

<em />

In a warm room, the air particles have <em>higher energy</em> compared to a cold room. Hence, they bump into each other <em>more frequently. </em>

This allow them to transfer the sound energy <em>quickly and easily </em>from one partial to another.  

Hence, sound travels faster in warm room then in cold room.

Answer:

Explanation:

Sound travels outwards from the source in all directions. So there you have it sound does travel faster in warm air BUT it may appear to travel farther in cold air. This is how that works……if the air close to the ground is colder than the air above it then sound waves travelling upwards will be bent downwards.

According to which theory or law is a chemical reaction most likely to occur when two particles with the proper energy and orien
Nat2105 [25]
<h2>Collision Theory </h2>

Explanation:

<h3>The given statement is related to the collision theory - </h3>

Collision theory was given by William Lewis in 1916.

This theory explains in a qualitative manner that in what way any chemical reaction occurs and the reason for the different reaction rates for different reactions.

<h3>According to the collision theory - </h3>
  • Molecules must collide in order to react
  • Sufficient amount of energy is needed for collisions (kinetic energy) so that the chemical bonds should break
  • This energy used is known as the activation energy
  • On the increase in the temperature, the kinetic energy of the molecule increases and the molecules move faster and collide with a proper orientation at an increased speed
  • This increases the rate of a collision that in turn increases the breaking of the bond

When electromagnetic radiation of wavelength 300nm falls on the surface of sodium electrons are emitted with a KE of 1.68 * 10 5
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

3.83 × 10⁻¹⁹ J;  518 nm  

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the <em>photoelectric effect</em> is

hf = Φ + KE  

<em>Data: </em>

λ = 300 nm = 300 × 10⁻⁹ m

KE = 1.68 × 10⁵ J/mol

Calculations:

Part 1. Minimum energy to remove an electron

(a) Calculate the <em>energy of the photon</em>

fλ = c  

 f = c/λ     Divide each side by λ

E = hf

E = hc/λ

E = (6.626× 10⁻³⁴ × 2.998 × 10⁸)/(300 × 10⁻⁹)

E = 6.622 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

(b) Calculate the <em>KE of one electron</em>

KE = 1.68 × 10⁵ × 1/(6.022 × 10²³)

KE = 2.790 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

(c) Calculate the work function

hf = Φ + KE     Subtract KE from each side

Φ = 6.622 × 10⁻¹⁹  - 2.790 × 10⁻¹⁹

Φ = 3.83 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

The minimum energy to remove an electron from a sodium atom

is 3.83 × 10⁻¹⁹ J.

Part 2. Maximum wavelength to remove an electron

The photon must have just enough energy to overcome the work function and leave the electron with zero kinetic energy.

    E = Φ

hc/λ = Φ                      Multiply each side by λ

  hc = Φ λ                   Divide each side by Φ

   λ = hc/ Φ

   λ = (6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ × 2.998 × 10⁸)/(3.83 × 10⁻¹⁹)

   λ = 5.18 × 10⁻⁷ m     Convert to nanometres

   λ = 518 nm

The maximum wavelength that will cause an electron to move is 518 nm.
