Answer:

Chemical potential energy converting to heat energy.

Explanation:

Burning of wood in a fire place or burning of any other compound in presence of oxygen involves combustion. During combustion there is breaking and making of bonds as combustion is a chemical reaction.

For example:

Combustion of carbon gives carbon dixoide:

C(s)+O_{2}(g)-->CO_{2}(g)

Combustion is an exothermic reaction, it releases large amount of energy.

Thus in all we are converting the chemical energy of a substance to heat energy during combustion.

Hence combustion involves Chemical potential energy converting to heat energy.

One of the emission spectral lines for Be3+ has a wavelength of 253.4 nm for an electronic transition that begins in the state w
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Relationship between wavenumber and Rydberg constant (R) is as follows:

wave\ number=R\times Z^2\frac{1}{n_1^2} -\frac{1}{n_1^2}

Here, Z is atomic number.

R=109677 cm^-1

Wavenumber is related with wavelength as follows:

wavenumber = 1/wavelength

wavelength = 253.4 nm

wavenumber=\frac{1}{253.4\times 10^{-9}} \\=39463.3\ cm^{-1}

Z fro Be = 4

39463.3=109677\times 4^2(\frac{1}{n_1^2} -\frac{1}{5^2})\\39463.3=109677\times 16(\frac{1}{n_1^2} -\frac{1}{5^2})\\n_1=4

Therefore, the principal quantum number corresponding to the given emission is 4.
