What causes metal to emit light?

2 answers:

Heating an atom excites its electrons and they jump to higher energy levels. When the electrons return to lower energy levels, they emit energy in the form of light. ... Every element has a different number of electrons and a different set of energy levels. Thus, each element emits its own set of colours.

Heat. Heating atoms causes its electrons to jump to higher energy levels; they emit energy in light form.

Species are the smallest groups. A species consists of all the animals of the same type, who are able to breed and produce young of the same kind. For example, while any two great white sharks are in the same species, as are any two makos, great whites and makos are in different species (since they can't interbreed Answer :SPECIES

25. Which answer best describes the continental rise? area of land that drops toward deep ocean basins 75 mile shallow flat area

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

Thick deposits of sediments carried off of the shelf

Explanation:

The continental rise is a thick deposit of sediments that accumulate between the continental slope and the abyssal plain

A is wrong. The area of land that drops toward the deep ocean basins is the continental slope.

B is wrong. The 75-mile shallow flat area just off coastlines is the continental shelf.

D is wrong. The surf area along coastlines is the surf zone .

650. J is the same amount of energy as A. 155 cal. B. 2720 calC. 650 cal.D. 1550 cal.

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

$A\text{ : 155 cal}$

Explanation:

Here, we want to convert J to cal

Mathematically:

$1\text{ cal = 4.186 J}$

Thus, to get our answer in cal, we divide the value given by 4.186

We have that as:

$\frac{650}{4.186}\text{ = 155 cal}$

50.0 mL of 0.200 M HNO2 is titrated to its equivalence point with 1.00 M NaOH. What is the pH at the equivalence point?

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

8.279

Explanation:

The pH can be determined by hydrolysis of a conjugate base of weak acid at the equivalence point.

At the equivalence point, we have

$n_{NaOH}=n_{HNO_2}$

= 25.00 x 0.200

= 5.00 m-mol

= 0.005 mol

Volume of the base that is added to reach the equivalence point is

$\frac{0.005}{1.00} \times 1000= 5.00 \ mL$

Number of moles of $NO^-_{2}=n_{HNO_2}$

= 0.005 mol

Volume at the equivalence point is 25 + 5 = 30.00 mL

Therefore, concentration of $NO^-_{2}= \frac{5}{30}$

= 0.167 M

Now the ICE table :

$NO^-_2 + H_2O \rightarrow HNO_3 + OH^-$

I (M) 0.167 0 0

C (M) -x +x +x

E (M) 0.167-x x x

Now, the value of the base dissociation constant is ,

$K_w=K_a \times K_b$ $(K_w \text{ is the ionic product of water })$

$K_b =\frac{K_w}{K_a}$

$K_b =\frac{1 \times 10^{-14}}{4.6 \times 10^{-4}}$

= $2.174 \times 10^{-11}$

Base ionization constant, $K_b = \frac{\left[HNO_2\right] \left[OH^- \right]}{\left[NO^-_2 \right]}$

$2.174 \times 10^{-11}=\frac{x^2}{0.167 -x}$

$x= 1.9054 \times 10^{-6}$

So, $[OH^-]=1.9054 \times 10^{-6 } \ M$

pOH =- $\log[OH^-]$

= $- \log(1.9054 \times 10^{-6} \ M)$

=5.72

Now, since pH + pOH = 14

pH = 14.00 - 5.72

= 8.279

Therefore the ph is 8.279 at the end of the titration.
