Answer:

a0 = 2

a1= 9

a2= 6

a3= 8

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is;

C3H7OH + O2 → CO2 + H2O

To balance the chemical equation we introduce coefficients;

Therefore the balanced chemical equation will be;

2C3H7OH + 9O2 → 6CO2 + 8H2O

Chemical equations are balanced to ensure the law of conservation of mass is obeyed, such that the mass of the reactants is equivalent to that of the products.

One of the emission lines that provides the green color in fireworks, which com s from barium salts, has a wavelength of 505nm.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Explanation:

(a)

The relation between frequency and wavelength is shown below as:

$c=frequency\times Wavelength
$

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

Given, Wavelength = 505 nm

Also, 1 m = $10^{-9}$ nm

So,

Wavelength = $505\times 10^{-9}$ m

Thus, Frequency is:

$Frequency=\frac{c}{Wavelength}$

$Frequency=\frac{3\times 10^8}{505\times 10^{-9}}\ Hz$

$Frequency=5.94\times 10^{14}\ Hz$

(b)

Also, $E=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}$

Where,

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

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

So,

$E=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{505\times 10^{-9}}\ J$

$E=\frac{10^{-26}\times \:19.878}{10^{-9}\times \:505}\ J$

$E=3.94\times 10^{-19}\ J$

(c)

Electromagnetic spectrum is range of the frequencies and their respective wavelengths of the various type of the electromagnetic radiation.

In order of the increasing frequency and the photon energy and the decreasing wavelength the spectrum are:

Red , Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet

Increasing wavelength is the opposite trend. Thus, The longest visible wavelength is red and the shortest is violet.

Answer:

All colors except blue are absorbed while blue is reflected. We

only see blue

Explanation:

When you go and see something blue as the sky, all of the colors are absorbed except blue. That is how we see colors

In the reaction of chlorine with calcium, explain which atom is oxidized.

romanna [79]

Answer:

The atom is oxidized is Ca.

Explanation:

The oxidation-reduction reaction contains a reductant and an oxidant (oxidizing agent).

The oxidation process is the process in which electrons are lost and produce positively charged ions.

The reduction process is the process in which electrons is gained and negatively charge ions are produced.

In the reaction of chlorine with calcium:

Ca + Cl₂ → CaCl₂,

Ca loses 2 electrons and is oxidized to Ca²⁺. (Ca → Ca²⁺ + 2e).

Cl is gains 2 electrons in "Cl₂, oxidation state zero" and is reduced to Cl⁻. (Cl₂ + 2e → 2Cl⁻).

When balancing a chemical equation, what are the large numbers that we adjust?

Nata [24]

Answer:

Coefficients

Explanation:

Chemical equations are first written as a skeleton equation, which includes how many atoms each element and compound has. Skeleton equations are not 'balanced' because the number of atoms of each element on the left side (reactants) is not equal to the right side (products).

To balance a chemical equation, you can write coefficients in front of single elements and compounds. The coefficient multiplies with each single element and with each element in the compound.

For example, in this skeleton equation:

H₂ + Cl₂ => HCl

Reactants: Products:

2 hydrogen 1 hydrogen

2 chlorine 1 chlorine

Write the coefficient 2 in the products.

H₂ + Cl₂ => 2HCl

Now both reactant and product sides have 2 chlorine and 2 hydrogen, so the equation is balanced.
