Answer: If the potential energy of the reaction system decreases, then kinetic energy in the surroundings increases and the temperature of the surroundings rises

Place the following transitions of the hydrogen atom in order from longest to shortest wavelength of the photon emitted. Rank fr
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

7 to 4     (higher  \lambda)

5 to 3

3 to 2

4 to 2   (lower  \lambda)

Explanation:

We can use the Rydberg formula which relates the wavelength of the photon emissions to the principle quantum numbers involved in the transition:

\frac{1}{\lambda}=R((\frac{1}{n_1^2})-(\frac{1}{n_2^2}))

with n_1 final n, and n_2 initial n

evaluating for each transition:

7 to 4 \frac{1}{\lambda} = R((\frac{1}{4^2})-(\frac{1}{7^2}))= R(1/16-1/49)=R(0.042)

5 to 3 \frac{1}{\lambda}= R(1/9-1/25)=R(0.071)

4 to 2 \frac{1}{\lambda}= R(1/4-1/16)=R(0.1875)

3 to 2 \frac{1}{\lambda}= R(1/4-1/9)=R(0.139)

Note that the above formula is written for \frac{1}{\lambda}, so lower \frac{1}{\lambda} value obtained involves higher \lambda.

So we should order from lower to higher \frac{1}{\lambda}

7 to 4     (higher  \lambda)

5 to 3

3 to 2

4 to 2   (lower  \lambda)

Note: Take into account that longer wavelength involves lower energy (E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}).

How do greenhouse gases in the atmosphere affect Earth’s temperature?
Maurinko [17]

Answer: The greenhouse gases cause Earth's surface to heat up from the sunlight.

Explanation: The greenhouse gases causes the Earth's surface to warm up in the morning and at night, the surface cools down. When it cools down, that gives the heat a chance to get back into the air, but some of the heat is trapped (which is caused by the greenhouse gases). That's why, on average, Earth stays at 58 degrees Fahrenheit.

Which of the following can scientists determine by comparing fossils from different layers of sediment?
VladimirAG [237]

By comparing fossils of different primate species, scientists can study how different species have diversified over time.<span> Almost all sediment is either laid down horizontally in bodies of water like the oceans, or on land on the margins of streams and rivers. Each time a new layer of sediment is deposited it is laid down horizontally on top of an older layer. With this events, Geologists can established a set of principles that can be applied to sediments and to determine how these features evolved through time.</span>
