Explain why a single atom of hydrogen cannot produce all four hydrogen spectral lines simultaneously.

Chemistry

brilliants [131]3 years ago

<span>When the electron in a hydrogen atom transitions from a high energy state to a lower energy state, the energy lost from the electron is used to produce a photon corresponding to the loss of energy. That photon will correspond to exactly 1 wavelength. And since a hydrogen atom has only 1 electron, at any given moment, it can only produce 1 photon. And in order to simultaneously produce 4 photons for 4 spectral lines, that would require a simultaneous transition of 4 electrons which is 3 too many for a hydrogen atom.</span>

Describe what happens in a condensation reactions
dlinn [17]
A condensation reaction is described to be a reaction wherein two molecules form an even larger product and consequently produces a smaller molecule as a by-product. For example, when two amino acids are combined, a dipeptide bond is formed. As a result, 1 molecule of water is produced as a by-product.

4 b + 3 o2 → 2 b2o3 if 8 moles of b and 4 moles of o2 are allowed to react, how many moles of b2o3 can be formed?
raketka [301]

The number of moles of  b2o3 that will be formed is determined as 4 moles.

<h3>Limiting reagent</h3>

The limiting reagent is the reactant that will be completely used up.

4 b + 3O₂ → 2b₂O₃

from the equation above;

4 b ------------> 2 b₂O₃

2b ------------> b₂O₃

2 : 1

3O₂  -------------> 2b₂O₃

3  :  2

b is the limiting reagent, thus, the amount of b2o3 to be formed is calculated as;

4 b ------------> 2 moles of  b2o3

8 moles -------> ?

= (8 x 2)/4

= 4 moles

Thus, the number of moles of  b2o3 that will be formed is determined as 4 moles.

What is the relationship between the release of energy as heat and calories
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

Calories is a unit to measure the amount of energy contained in a particular food product. It is regarded as the energy required to raise the temperature of 1g of water by 1°C.

It is important note that calories measures the heat content of food we eat and consume. Therefore, there is a direct relationship between the release of energy as heat and the calories. The more the calories, the more the energy that would be released as heat.
