Answer:

i) No electron is emitted. Hence, no kinetic energy or velocity of emitted electron

ii) KE = 6.85 x 10⁻¹⁹ J; v = 1.23 x 10⁶ m/s

Explanation:

Using the formula: Kinetic energy, KE = hc/λ - E₀

where h = the Plank constant 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J s,

c is velocity of light = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of incident light in nm

E₀ = work function in Joules

Note: 1 eV = 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ Joules

Also, using KE = 1/2 mv²

v = √(2KE/m)

where m is mass of electron = 9.11 x 10⁻³¹ Kg

i) KE = hc/λ - E₀

KE = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ Js x 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s) / 650 x 10⁻⁹ m - (2.09 x 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ J)

KE = 3.06 x 10⁻¹⁹ J - 3.35 x 10⁻¹⁹  = - 2.9 x 10⁻²⁰ J

Since KE is negative, no electron is emitted. Thus, there is no kinetic energy or velocity of electron.

ii) KE = hc/λ - E₀

KE = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ Js x 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s) / 195 x 10⁻⁹ m - (2.09 x 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ J)

KE = 10.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ J - 3.35 x 10⁻¹⁹

KE = 6.85 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Velocity, v = √(2KE/m)

v = √( 2 x 6.85 x 10⁻¹⁹ J / 9.11 x 10⁻³¹ Kg)

v = 1.23 x 10⁶ m/s

The equilibrium constant, Kp, for the following reaction is 9.52×10-2 at 350 K: CH4(g) + CCl4(g) 2CH2Cl2(g) Calculate the equili
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

pCH4 =  0.9184 atm

pCCl4 = 0.9184 atm

pCH2Cl2 = 0.2832 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The equilibrium constant, Kp= 9.52 * 10^-2

Temperature = 350 K

Each have an initial pressure of 1.06 atm

Step 2: The balanced equation

CH4(g) + CCl4(g) ⇆ 2CH2Cl2(g)

Step 3: The pressure at the equilibrium

pCH4 = 1.06 - X atm

pCCl4 = 1.06 - X atm

pCH2Cl2 = 2X

Step 4: Calculate Kp

Kp = (2X)² / (1.06 - X)*(1.06 - X)

9.52 * 10^-2 = 4X² / (1.06 - X)*(1.06 - X)

X = 0.1416

Step 5: Calculate the partial pressure

pCH4 = 1.06 - 0.1416 =  0.9184 atm

pCCl4 = 1.06 - 0.1416 =  0.9184 atm

pCH2Cl2 = 2 * 0.1416 = 0.2832 atm

Kp = (0.2832²) / (0.9184*0.9184)

Kp = 9.52 * 10^-2

pCH4 =  0.9184 atm

pCCl4 = 0.9184 atm

pCH2Cl2 = 0.2832 atm

nordsb [41]

Answer:

Ideal Solution: An ideal solution is a solution where interactions between molecules are identical between all the molecules in the solution. Non ideal Solution: A non ideal solution is a solution that has differences in the interactions between molecules of different components in the solution.
