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>

Gala2k [10]
Why do so many storms target the state? The easterly winds typically blowing across Jacksonville in the summer flow out of the Azores/Bermuda high-pressure system which also steers many hurricanes into the Gulf. In June and October, storms are more likely to move up the Gulf from the south and southwest.

4. Which of these are environmental costs of using
Vinvika [58]

Answer: b. The waste generated is hazardous and must  be disposed of.

c. Nuclear material can be spilled into the ocean  if reactors are near the coast.

d. A large amount of cold water is generated,  which must be stored somewhere.​

Explanation:

The main environmental costs for produced during the nuclear power plant consists of procurement of fuel and the thermal load is also produced with cold water discharge in the sea. This can contaminate the sea, hence, must be stored somewhere. The nuclear waste consists of radioactive substances which are hazardous for the environment. The nuclear based electricity does not produce carbon dioxide.

2. if 0.20 m fe3 had been used instead of 0.020 m fe3 , how would the numerical value of the rate constant and the activation en
dezoksy [38]

the calculated value is Ea is 18.2 KJ and A is 12.27.

According to the exponential part in the Arrhenius equation, a reaction's rate constant rises exponentially as the activation energy falls. The rate also grows exponentially because the rate of a reaction is precisely proportional to its rate constant.

At 500K, K=0.02s−1

At 700K, k=0.07s −1

The Arrhenius equation can be used to calculate Ea and A.

RT=k=Ae Ea

lnk=lnA+(RT−Ea)

At 500 K,

ln0.02=lnA+500R−Ea

500R Ea (1) At 700K lnA=ln (0.02) + 500R

lnA = ln (0.07) + 700REa (2)

Adding (1) to (2)

700REa100R1[5Ea-7Ea] = 0.02) +500REa=0.07) +700REa.

=ln [0.02/0 .07]

Ea= 2/35×100×8.314×1.2528

Ea =18227.6J

Ea =18.2KJ

Changing the value of E an in (1),

lnA=0.02) + 500×8.314/18227.6

= (−3.9120) +4.3848

lnA=0.4728

logA=1.0889

A=antilog (1.0889)

A=12.27

Consequently, Ea is 18.2 KJ and A is 12.27.

A chemist makes up a solution by dissolving 42.0 g of Mg(NO3)2 in enough water to produce a final solution volume of 259 mL. To
Igoryamba

Answer:

The molar mass of Mg(NO₃)₂, 148.3 g/mol.

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Mass of Mg(NO₃)₂ (solute): 42.0 g
  • Volume of solution: 259 mL = 0.259 L

Step 2: Calculate the moles of solute

To calculate the moles of solute, we need to know the molar mass of Mg(NO₃)₂, 148.3 g/mol.

42.0 g × 1 mol/148.3 g = 0.283 mol

Step 3: Calculate the molarity of the solution

M = moles of solute / liters of solution

M = 0.283 mol / 0.259 L

M = 1.09 M

1-The chemical potential energy of bond A is greater than the chemical potential energy of bond B. Which statement best explains
Tju [1.3M]

It should be noted that bond A has greater energy because C. The atoms in bond A are held more tightly together than the atoms in bond B.

<h3>Bond</h3>

The relationship between the bond energies of nitrogen, iodine, and fluorine gases is that the bond in nitrogen gas is the most difficult to break.

From the information given, the molecule with the greatest bid energy is CH4. The bind energy measures the bond strength that the chemical bond has.

Also, the bond energy of the reactants in reaction 1 is greater than the bond energy of the reactants in reaction 2. Due to this, reaction 1 requires a greater input of energy than reaction 2.

Lastly, the difference in the bond energy of Chlorine and Bromine is that Bromine has more electron levels than chlorine.
