What pressure is exerted by 932.3 g of CH4 in a 0.560 L steel container at 136.2 K?
Roman55 [17]
Molar mass CH4 = 16.0 g/mol

* number of moles:

932.3 / 16 => 58.26875 moles

T = 136.2 K

V = 0.560 L

P = ?

R = 0.082

Use the clapeyron equation:

P x V = n x R x T

P x 0.560 =  58.26875 x 0.082 x 136.2

P x 0.560 = 650.76

P = 650.76 / 0.560

P = 1162.07 atm

Calculate the wavelength of the photon that would be absorbed or emitted. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.
Flauer [41]

This is an incomplete question, the image for the given question is attached below.

Answer : The wavelength of photon would be absorbed, 3.06\times 10^{-7}m

Explanation :

From the given diagram of energy we conclude that,

Energy at ground state, A = 400 zJ

Energy of 2nd excited state, C = 1050 zJ

Now we have to calculate the energy of the photon.

E=E_c-E_A

E=(1050-400)zJ= 650zJ=650\times 10^{-21}J

Now we have to calculate the wavelength of the photon.

Formula used :

E=h\times \nu

As, \nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}

So, E=h\times \frac{c}{\lambda}

where,

E = energy of photon = 650\times 10^{-21}J

\nu = frequency of photon

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

\lambda = wavelength of photon  = ?

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^8m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

650\times 10^{-21}J=(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times \frac{(3\times 10^{8}m/s)}{\lambda}

\lambda=3.06\times 10^{-7}m

Therefore, the wavelength of photon would be absorbed, 3.06\times 10^{-7}m

Explain why an ice cube will melt if compressed, even though the temperature remains the same
LiRa [457]
A ice cube melts if compressed, because increasing the pressure decreases the melting point of water.

Ice has an open crystalline structure.

This structure collapses to a smaller volume when the ice melts to form liquid water.

Ice and water are at equilibrium at 0 °C.

If you apply pressure at 0 °C, the ice will melt in an attempt to relieve the stress and get to a smaller volume.
