An ultraviolet ray of light has a wavelength of 1.5x10^-8 m. What is the ray's frequency?

Chemistry
1 answer:
frutty [35]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

2 E16 Hz    or     2 * 10^16 Hz

Explanation:

The formula to determine frequency is f = c / λ.

f = frequency

c = speed of light

λ = wavelength

f = 3E8 / 1.5E-8

f = 2E16

This makes sense because UV light exists roughly

between 8E14 Hz and 3E16 Hz ----- 2E16 Hz falls in that range

Which type of acetylcholine receptor is present on postganglionic neurons
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Mescarinic and Nicotinic

Explanation:

Postganglionic fibers can be present in both sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions, their main difference resides in how in the sympathetic division the postganglionic fibers are adrenergic and use norepinephrine (noradrenalin) as a neurotransmitter, in the parasympathetic division, on the other hand, fibers are cholinergic and use acetylcholine as a neurotransmitter, the<em> postganglionic neurons of sweat glands release acetylcholine for the activation of muscarinic receptors, another kind of receptor for acetylcholine are nicotinic receptors </em>that act as transmembrane sodium/potassium channels, while muscarinic receptors need to act through intracellular proteins.

I hope you find this informatiou useful and interesting! Good luck!

What is the radius of a hydrogen atom whose electron is bound by 0.544 ev? express your answer with the appropriate units?
insens350 [35]
First, we need to calculate the principal quantum number n for this electron, using the equation:
E = (-13.60 eV) / (n x n)
where E is the energy that is used to bound the electron (here, E = - 0.544 eV).
- 0.544 eV = (-13.60 eV) / (n x n)
n x n = (- 13.60 eV) / (- 0.544 eV)
n x n = 25
n = 5

The orbital radius that is equal to the radius of a hydrogen atom is calculated using the equation:
r = 0.053 nm x n x n
r = 0.053 nm x 5 x 5
r = 0.053 nm x 25
r = 1.325 nm
