What is the frequency of green light that has a wavelength of 5.14 x 10^-7m?
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Frecuency = 5,83x10⁻⁷ Hz

Explanation:

The equation that connects wavelenght and frequency is given by:

λ = c/ν

λ=wavelenght (expressed in lenght´s units)

c= speed of light (3x10⁸ m/sec)

ν=frequency (expressed in units of time⁻¹ or Herzt)

In our case, λ=5,14x10⁻⁷ m , so replacing in our previous formula, this gives us the final result of ν (frequency for green light) of 5,83x10¹⁴ Hz (or Herzt)

A 3.06 gram sample of an unknown hydrocarbon with empirical formula CH2O was found to contain 0.0170 moles of the substance. Wha
Yanka [14]

Answer:

180 amu

C₆H₁₂O₆

Explanation:

Step 1: Determine the molecular mass of the compound

The sample has a mass (m) of 3.06 g and it contains (n) 0.0170 moles. The molar mass M is:

M = m/n = 3.06/0.0170 mol = 180 g/mol

Then, the molecular mass is 180 amu.

Step 2: Determine the molar mass of the empirical formula.

M(CH₂O) = 1 × M(C) + 2 × M(H) + 1 × M(O)

M(CH₂O) = 1 × 12 g/mol + 2 × 1 g/mol + 1 × 16 g/mol = 30 g/mol

Step 3: Determine the molecular formula

First, we will determine "n" according to the following expression.

n = molar mass molecular formula / molar mass empirical formula

n = 180 g/mol / 30 g/mol = 6

The molecular formula is:

n × CH₂O = 6 × CH₂O = C₆H₁₂O₆

Look at the following enthalpy diagram. Select all that apply.
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Option 2 and 4 are correct

Explanation:

The reactants in the attached image have more enthalpy and hence less stability as they are more reactive. Thus, Product is more stable than the reactants.

This is an addition reaction in which two reactants add up to form the product.

Very less activation energy is required as the reactants themselves are unstable, possess high energy and hence are very reactive.

Reactants have more energy than the products.
