A hydrogen atom in an excited state can be ionized with less energy than when it is in its ground state. What is n for a hydroge

n atom if 0.544 eV of energy can ionize it?

Explanation:

It is known that formula for the ionization energy of hydrogen atom is as follows.

               E = \frac{13.6 eV}{n^{2}}

or,          n = \sqrt{\frac{13.6}{E}}

The value of energy is given as 0.544 eV. Therefore, we will calculate the value of n as follows.

                   n = \sqrt{\frac{13.6}{E}}

                      = \sqrt{\frac{13.6}{0.544 eV}}

                      = 5

Thus, we can conclude that n equals to 5 for a hydrogen atom if 0.544 eV of energy can ionize it.

Make a quick chart with each element represented, and count them up. HINT - leave the polyatomic anions together - in this case, PO4

Left      Right
1     Ca  3
2      O   1
5      H   2
1    PO4 2

Begin by balancing like finding common denominators of fractions - apply to both sides:
I started by adding a 2 in front of H3PO4 on the left, them 6 in front of H2O on the right. Last, a 3 in front of Ca (OH)2. Then, re-count using the chart format to make sure you're right.

3Ca(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 = Ca3(PO4)2 + 6H2O

Explain why BH3 is trigonal planar and NH3 is trigonal pyramidal.
Troyanec [42]

Answer:o It is important to realise that mixing will be small unless there are electrons in the 4a1 LUMO, this is why NH3 is pyramidal while BH3 is planar! ... This mixing is very strong and stabilises the 3a1 MO substantially and hence NH3 is trigonal pyramidal and not planar.

Which of the following is true about the kinetic molecular theory?
velikii [3]

Answer: (B) Pressure is due to the collisions of the gas particles with the walls of the container.

Option B helps to explain the factor behind gas collision under high pressure.

Explanation: Kinetic molecular theory explains the behaviour and movement of gas particles when they are in motion. It states that gas particles are always in continuous motion and are perfectly elastic in nature.

Kinetic molecular theory can be explained using both Boyle's law and Charles's law.

•Few Assumptions of Kinetic Molecular Theory.

1. Gas particles are always in motion and they collide with the walls of their container.

2. The space occupied by a gas particles is negligible in comparison to the volume of the gas
