A photon with 2.3 eV of energy can eject an electron from potassium. What is the corresponding wavelength of this type of light?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

\lambda=540.16\ nm

Explanation:

Given that:

The energy of the photon = 2.3 eV

Energy in eV can be converted to energy in J as:

1 eV = 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

So, Energy = 2.3\times 1.60\times 10^{-19}\ J=3.68\times 10^{-19}\ J

Considering

Energy=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}

Where,  

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

c is the speed of light having value 3\times 10^8\ m/s

\lambda is the wavelength of the light being bombarded

Thus,  

3.68\times 10^{-19}=\frac {6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{\lambda}

\frac{3.68}{10^{19}}=\frac{19.878}{10^{26}\lambda}

3.68\times \:10^{26}\lambda=1.9878\times 10^{20}

\lambda=5.40163\times 10^{-7}\ m=540.16\times 10^{-9}\ m

Also,  

1 m = 10⁻⁹ nm

So,  

\lambda=540.16\ nm

Why are acids, bases and even some salts commonly used in cleaning applications?
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Hope this helps :)

Explanation:

In the chemical industry, acids react in neutralization reactions to produce salts. For example, nitric acid reacts with ammonia to produce ammonium nitrate, a fertilizer. Additionally, carboxylic acids can be esterified with alcohols, to produce esters.

Acids are used to remove mineral deposits, rust stains, and hard water deposits. They can remove discoloration from some metals, such as aluminum, brass, bronze, and copper. Some acids are effective both in cleaning and disinfecting surfaces.

Using fission, what mass m of uranium-235 would be necessary to supply all of the energy that the united states uses in a year,
asambeis [7]
The energy released by 1 atom of Uranium is Q=185.*10^6-25.
The energy needed for U.S. that I will name Q2, in eV is: 1*10^19J* (1eV/(1.602*10^-19))=6.2422*10^37eV

Q=mc^2
Q2=mc^2

m is the mass of Uranium in kg that we calculated at 3.90*10^-25. We need to fund m2 because that is the unknown mass in the equation for Q2 to give us the energy for the U.S. and remember, Q is the energy that 1 atom of Uranium gives out which is why we took a ratio. 


m2=Q2/Q*m=1.3*10^5 kg (final answer)
