Answer: 8.28g Na

Explanation: use ideal gas law

PV= nRT

Solve for moles of Cl2

n= PV/ RT

Substitute:

= 1 atm x 4.0 L / 0.08205 L.atm/ mol. K x 273 K

= 0.18 moles Cl2

Do stoichiometry to solve for m of Na

2 Na + Cl2 => 2 NaCl2

=0.18 moles Cl2 x 2 mol Na/ 1 mol Cl2 x 23g Na / 1 mol Na

= 8.28 g Na.

Consider a transition of the electron in the hydrogen atom from n=3 to n=7.

kow [346]

Answer:

For a: The wavelength of light is $1.005\times 10^{-6}m$

For b: The light is getting absorbed

Explanation:

For a:

To calculate the wavelength of light, we use Rydberg's Equation:

$\frac{1}{\lambda}=R_H\left(\frac{1}{n_i^2}-\frac{1}{n_f^2} \right )$

Where,

$\lambda$ = Wavelength of radiation

$R_H$ = Rydberg's Constant = $1.097\times 10^7m^{-1}$

$n_f$ = Higher energy level = 7

$n_i$ = Lower energy level = 3

Putting the values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{1}{\lambda }=1.097\times 10^7m^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{3^2}-\frac{1}{7^2} \right )\\\\\lambda =1.005\times 10^{-6}m$

Hence, the wavelength of light is $1.005\times 10^{-6}m$

For b:

There are two ways in which electrons can transition between energy levels:

Absorption spectra: This type of spectra is seen when an electron jumps from lower energy level to higher energy level. In this process, energy is absorbed.
Emission spectra: This type of spectra is seen when an electron jumps from higher energy level to lower energy level. In this process, energy is released in the form of photons.

As, the electron jumps from lower energy level to higher energy level. The wavelength is getting absorbed.

Answer:

Option B is correct. A nuclear alpha decay

Explanation:

Step 1

This equation is a nuclear reaction. So it can be an alpha decay or a beta decay

An α-particle is a helium nucleus. It contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons, for a mass number of 4.

During α-decay, an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle. It transforms (or decays) into an atom with an atomic number 2 less and a mass number 4 less.

Thus, radium-226 decays through α-particle emission to form radon-222 according to the equation that is showed.

A Beta decay occurs when, in a nucleus with too many protons or too many neutrons, one of the protons or neutrons is transformed into the other.

Option B is correct. A nuclear alpha decay
