<span>Determine the root-mean-square sped of CO2 molecules that have an average Kinetic Energy of 4.21x10^-21 J per molecule. Write your answer to 3 sig figs.

E = 1/2 m v^2
If you substitute into this formula, you will get out the root-mean-square speed.
If energy is Joules, the mass should be in kg, and the speed will be in m/s.
1 mol of CO2 is 44.0 g, or 4.40 x 10^1 g or 4.40 x 10^-2 kg.
If you divide this by Avagadro's constant, you will get the average mass of a CO2 molecule.
4.40 x 10^-2 kg / 6.02 x 10^23 = 7.31 x 10^-26 kg
So, if E = 1/2 mv^2
</span>v^2 = 2E/m = 2 (4.21x10^-21 J)/7.31 x 10^-26 kg = 115184.68
Take the square root of that, and you get the answer 339 m/s.
Answer:
Excited state of an electron is the state attained by an electron after it has absorbed energy and it moves further from the nucleus.
an electron is at higher energy when excited and at lower energy when at ground state.
an excited electron is less stable due to the decrease in the nuclear force of attraction and the grounded electron is more stable due to it's close distance to the nucleus.
Answer:
because the tectonic plates move 4 inches per year.
