Chemistry

Nuetrik [128]3 years ago

Answer: If a hydrogen atom and a helium atom have the same kinetic energy then the wavelength of the hydrogen atom will be roughly equal to the wavelength of the helium atom.

Explanation:

The relation between energy and wavelength is as follows.

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\\

This means that energy is inversely proportional to wavelength.

As it is given that energy of a hydrogen atom and a helium atom is same.

Let us assume that E_{hydrogen} = E_{helium} = E'. Hence, relation between their wavelengths will be calculated as follows.

E_{hydrogen} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{hydrogen}}    ... (1)

E_{helium} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{helium}}         ... (2)

Equating the equations (1) and (2) as follows.

E_{hydrogen} = E_{helium} = E'\\\frac{hc}{\lambda_{hydrogen}} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{helium}} = E'\\\lambda_{helium} = \lambda_{hydrogen} = E'

Thus, we can conclude that if a hydrogen atom and a helium atom have the same kinetic energy then the wavelength of the hydrogen atom will be roughly equal to the wavelength of the helium atom.

Why does argon exist in nature as individual argon atoms and chlorine exist in nature as 2 chlorine atoms covalently bonded toge
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Argon has 8 valence electrons and no extras, it does not require a bond in order to fill its shells, its satisfied by itself.

Chlorine is missing 1 Electron, if it connects with another Chlorine it will be satisfying both of their needs with a Covalent bond.

A transformer has 90 turns in the primary coil and 9 turns in the secondary coil If the output voltage is 6 V, what is the input
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

60 V

Explanation:

From;

Vs/Vp = Ns/Np

Where;

Vs = voltage in the secondary coil = 6V

Vp = voltage in the primary coil= ??

Ns = number of turns in the secondary coil = 9

Np= number of turns in the primary coil = 90

6/Vp = 9/90

Vp= 90 * 6/9

Vp=  60 V

Find the mass of one atom of uranium-235. Recall that the mass in atomic mass units is equal to the mass in grams of one mole of
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

3.90*10^{-25}kg/atom

Explanation:

The molar mass of uranium-235 is 235 g/mol. So one mole of uranium-235 has a mass of 235 g. Put differently 6.022×10^23 atoms of uranium-235 have a mass of 235 g. Knowing that, how can we use that to find the mass of one atom?

mass of one atom = \frac{235 g}{1mol} *\frac{1 mol}{6.022*10^{23}atoms } *\frac{1kg}{1000g}= 3.90*10^{-25}kg/atom
