Both inches of mercury and milimeters of mercury are units used to measure pressure . 
in. Hg - inches of mercury 
mm Hg - millimetres of mercury 
1 mm Hg is equivalent to 0.0394 in. Hg
therefore 45 mm Hg is equal to 0.0394 in.Hg/mm Hg x 45 mm Hg = 1.8 in. Hg

correct answer is B - <span>1.8 in. hg</span>

Why do electrons transition between energy levels within the atom, and how do we detect these transitions?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Electrons transition between energy levels in an atom due to gain or loss of energy. An electron may gain energy and move from its ground state to one of the accessible excited states. The electron quickly returns to ground state, emitting the energy previously absorbed as a photon of light. The wavelength of light emitted is measured using powerful spectrometers.

Atoms can be excited thermally or by irradiation with light of appropriate frequency.

Given the chemical formulas of the following compounds, name each compound and state the rules you used to determine each name.
Svetlanka [38]
When naming an ionic compound, write the name of the cation, which is the metal first. Then, write the name of the anion, which is the nonmetal. However, you remove the last 2-3 letters and replace suffixes. 

1. RbF --> Rubidium Fluoride
Change fluorine to fluoride
2. CuO --> Copper (II) Oxide
Change oxygen to oxide. Oxide has a charge of -2. Since no subscripts are written, it means they have the same opposite charge. So, we use Copper (II).

NH₄ is ammonia, but we change it to ammonium for polyatomic ions.

12. A helium-filled weather balloon has a volume of 2.4 x 102 L at 99 kPa pressure and a
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 8.74 g of He

Explanation:

Data

V = 2.4 x 10² L

P = 99 kPa

T = 0°C

mass = ?

Process

1.- Convert kPa to atm

P = 99 kPa = 99000 Pa

                   1 atm --------------- 101325 Pa

                    x       ---------------   99000 Pa

                   x = (99000 x 1) / 101325

                   x = 0.977 atm

2.- Convert temperature to °K

°K = 273 + 0

°K = 273

3.- Substitution

      PV = nRT

- Solve for n

      n = PV / RT

      n = (0.977)(2.4 x 10²) / (0.082)(273)

      n = 24.48 / 22.386

      n = 1.093 moles

4.- Calculate the grams of He

          8 g -------------------- 1 mol

           x    -------------------- 1.093 moles

           x = (1.093 x 8) / 1

           x = 8.74 g

What are the steps used to write ionic formulas for ionic compounds
lorasvet [3.4K]
Write the symbols for the cation and the anion: Mg and Cl. Determine the charge on the cation and anion. If the cation has a Roman numeral after it, that is the charge on that cation. Cations receive Roman numerals when they can take more than one ionicform.
