The maximum height at which nitrogen molecule will go before coming to rest is 14 kilometers.
Given:
The nitrogen gas molecule with a temperature of 330 Kelvins is released from Earth's surface to travel upward.
To find:
The maximum height of a nitrogen molecule when released from the Earth's surface before coming to rest.
Solution:
- The maximum height attained by nitrogen gas molecule = h
- The temperature of nitrogen gas particle = T = 330 K
The average kinetic energy of the gas particles is given by:

The nitrogen molecule at its maximum height will have zero kinetic energy as all the kinetic energy will get converted into potential energy
- The potential energy at height h =

- Molar mass of nitrogen gas = 28.0134 g/mol
- Mass of nitrogen gas molecule = m

- The acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 m/s^2
- The maximum height attained by nitrogen gas molecule = h
- The potential energy is given by:


The maximum height at which nitrogen molecule will go before coming to rest is 14 kilometers.

Answer:
When an electron is hit by a photon of light, it absorbs the quanta of energy the photon was carrying and moves to a higher energy state. One way of thinking about this higher energy state is to imagine that the electron is now moving faster, (it has just been "hit" by a rapidly moving photon).
Explanation: pls mark brainliest :))
The rate of dissolution of a solid solute into the solution decreases when you stop stirring it. Generally, stirring increases the dissolution rate of a solid into a solution. An example is coffee with sugar, the sugar dissolves faster when stirred versus when left to dissolve on its own.
