Answer:

Option A,+4

Explanation:

Oxidation state of any element is the sum of oxidation of all elements =0

Here we need to find oxidation no of carbon and consider oxidation no of carbon as X and oxidation number of oxygen is -2

Then X+2(-2)=0 (since 2 oxygen atoms are there in CO2 )

X-4=0

X=+4

Liula [17]

Following the quantic theory, the energy of a photon equals the radiation frequency multiplied by the universal constant. ν = 2.923x10¹⁵ Hz. E = 3.09x10¹⁵Hz.

<h3>What is quantum mechanic?</h3>

It is the branch of physics that studies objects and forces at a very low scale, at atoms, subatoms, and particles levels.

Quantum mechanics states that the elemental particles that constitute matter -electrons, neutrons, protons- have the properties of a wave and a particle.

It emerges from the quantic theory exposed by Max Planck (1922), in which he affirmed that light propagates in energy packages or photons.

He discovered the Universal Planck constant, h, used to calculate the energy of a photon.

He stated that the energy of a photon (E) equals the radiation frequency (ν) multiplied by the universal constant (h).

E = νh

In the exposed example, we need to calculate the energy required to change from the 3rd shell to the first shell.

To do it, we should know that the energy in a level (Eₙ) equals the energy associated to an electron in the most inferior energy level (E₁) divided by the square of the shell number (n²).

Eₙ = E₁ / n²

E₁ is a constant. We can express it in Joules or electroVolts

E₁ = -2.18x10⁻¹⁸ J
E₁ = -13.6 eV

So, let us calculate the energy at level 1 and 3

Eₙ = E₁ / n²

E₁ = -2.18x10⁻¹⁸ J / 1² = -2.18x10⁻¹⁸ J

E₁ = -13.6 eV / 1² = -13.6 eV

E₃ = -2.18x10⁻¹⁸ J / 3² = -2.18x10⁻¹⁸ J / 9 = - 2.42x10⁻¹⁹ J

E₃ = -13.6 eV / 3² = -13.6 eV / 9 = - 1.51 eV

The change of energy can be calculated in two ways,

Option 1

ΔE = E₁ - E₃ = 2.18x10⁻¹⁸ - 2.42x10⁻¹⁹ = 1.93x10⁻¹⁸J

ΔE = E₁ - E₃ = 13.6 - 1.51 = 12.09 eV

Option 2

ΔE = -2.18x10⁻¹⁸ J (1/nf² - 1/ni²)

ΔE =-13.6 eV (1/nf² - 1/ni²)

Where nf is the final level and ni is the initial level. When the electron passes from its initial level to its final level it is called electronic transition.

ni = 3
nf = 1

ΔE = -2.18x10⁻¹⁸ J (1/nf² - 1/ni²)

ΔE = -2.18x10⁻¹⁸ J (1/1² - 1/3²)

ΔE = -2.18x10⁻¹⁸ J (1 - 0.111)

ΔE = -2.18x10⁻¹⁸ J (0.888)

ΔE = - 1.937x10⁻¹⁸ J

ΔE = -13.6 eV (1/nf² - 1/ni²)

ΔE = -13.6 eV (1/1² - 1/3²)

ΔE = -13.6 eV (1 - 0.111)

ΔE = -13.6 eV (0.888)

ΔE = -12.08 eV

This is the energy required for the electron to go from n= 3 to n = 1. The negative sign (-) means energy (as light or photons) released or emitted.

If we want to express the result in Hz, we just need to make a conversion.

1Hz ⇔ 6.626x10⁻³⁴J ⇔ 4.136x10¹⁵ eV.

The energy required for the electron to go from n= 3 to n = 1 is 3.09x10¹⁵ Hz.

Now, we need to calculate the frequency, ν. This is, how many times the wave oscillates back and foward per second.

To do it, we will use the universal Planck constant, h, and the absolute value of the energy, E.

ν = E/h = 1.937x10⁻¹⁸ J / 6.626x10⁻³⁴ Js = 2.923x10¹⁵ 1/s = 2.923x10¹⁵ Hz.

Answer:

Frequency, ν = E/h = 2.923x10¹⁵ Hz.
Energy, E = 3.09x10¹⁵ Hz.

2 SO3 (g) + Heat <-----> 2 SO2 (g) + O2 (g)

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The concentration of SO₂ will decreases

Explanation:

As you can see in the reaction

2 moles of gas ⇆ 3 moles of gas

Based on Le Châtelier's principle, a change doing in a system will produce that the system reacts in order to counteract the change made.

If the pressure is increased, the system will shift to the left in order to produce less moles of gas and decrease, thus, the pressure.

As the system shift to the left, the concentration of SO₂ will decreases

Federico has two samples of pure water—sample X and sample Y. Sample X has a volume of 1 L, and sample Y has a volume of 10 L. H

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The boiling point of sample X and sample Y are exactly the same.

Explanation:

The difference between sample X and sample Y is that they occupy different volumes. However, they both contain pure water. Remember that pure water has uniform composition irrespective of its volume.

Volume does not affect the boiling point as long as the volume is small enough not to give rise to significant pressure changes in the liquid.

The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which the pressure exerted by the surroundings upon a liquid is equaled by the pressure exerted by the vapour of the liquid; under this condition, addition of heat results in the transformation of the liquid into its vapour without raising the temperature.

It can be clearly seen from the above that the volume of a solution of pure water does not affect its boiling point hence sample X and sample Y will have the same boiling point.
