Answer:

B. their frequency stays the same while the wave length decreases.

Explanation:

As the light wave travels from a less dense medium to a denser medium it slows down and this causes refraction. The speed of light is given by wavelength×frequency.

Therefore, when the wavelength decreases, the speed also reduces.

The average speed of oxygen molecules in air is about ____. (1 point) 0 km/h 170 km/h 1700 km/h 17,000 km/h
LenKa [72]

The average speed is calculated using the following formulaspeed = \sqrt{\frac{3kT}{m} }


Where

k = 1.381 X  10^{-23} J / K

T = 298 K [room temperature]

m = mass of each molecule of oxygen

mass of one mole of oxygen molecules = 32 g / mol

mass of one molecule of oxygen will be = \frac{32}{6.023 X 10^{23} }

mass of one molecule of oxygen will be = 5.31 X 10^{-23} g = 5.31 X 10^{-26} kg

putting values

average speed = \sqrt{\frac{3 X 1.381 X  10^{-23} X 298}{5.31 X 10^{-26} kg} }

Average speed = 482.19 m / s

average speed = 1735.8 km / h

so approx = 1700 km/h

Photodissociation of ozone (O3) can be described as producing an oxygen atom with heat of formation 247.5 kJ/mol. However, in re
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

0.2193 μm

Explanation:

The reaction showing the Photodissociation of ozone (O3) is given below as:

           O₃         +        hv   -------------------------->      O₂         +       O⁺  

H°        (142.9)                                                         (0)                  (438kJ/mol).

The first thing to do here is to determine the change in the enthalpy of the total reaction, this can be done by subtracting the change in the enthalpy of the reactant from the change in enthalpy in the product. Hence, we have:

ΔH° = [438 kJ/mol + 247.5 kJ/mol] - (142.9) = 542.6 KJ/mol.

This value, that is 542.6 KJ/mol will then be used in the determination of the value for the maximum wavelength that could cause this photodissociation.

Therefore, the maximum wavelength could cause this photodissociation ≤ h × c/ E = [ 1.199 × 10⁻⁴]/ 542.6 = 2.193 × 10⁻⁷ =  0.2193 μm
