Describe all of the van der Waals forces that exist between molecules of water.

Chemistry
1 answer:
faust18 [17]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

The van der Waals' forces are the forces that exist between the millions of separate water molecules, and not between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms in the case of water. Dipole-Dipole forces are one of van der Waals' three forces. ... For example, HCl comprised of the atom Hydrogen and Chlorine is polar.

Calculate the wavelength of light emitted when each of the following transitions occur in the hydrogen atom. What type of electr
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The wavelength of the emitted photon will be approximately 655 nm, which corresponds to the visible spectrum.

Explanation:

In order to answer this question, we need to recall Bohr's formula for the energy of each of the orbitals in the hydrogen atom:

E_{n} = -\frac{m_{e}e^{4}}{2(4\pi\epsilon_{0})^2\hbar^{2}}\frac{1}{n^2} = E_{1}\frac{1}{n^{2}}, where:

[tex]m_{e}[tex] = electron mass

e = electron charge

[tex]\epsilon_{0}[tex] = vacuum permittivity

[tex]\hbar[tex] = Planck's constant over 2pi

n = quantum number

[tex]E_{1}[tex] = hydrogen's ground state = -13.6 eV

Therefore, the energy of the emitted photon is given by the difference of the energy in the 3d orbital minus the energy in the 2nd orbital:

[tex]E_{3} - E_{2} = -13.6 eV(\frac{1}{3^{2}} - \frac{1}{2^{2}})=1.89 eV[tex]

Now, knowing the energy of the photon, we can calculate its wavelength using the equation:

[tex]E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}[tex], where:

E = Photon's energy

h = Planck's constant

c = speed of light in vacuum

[tex]\lambda[tex] = wavelength

Solving for [tex]\lambda[tex] and substituting the required values:

[tex]\lambda = \frac{hc}{E} = \frac{1.239 eV\mu m}{1.89 eV}=0.655\mu m = 655 nm[tex], which correspond to the visible spectrum (The visible spectrum includes wavelengths between 400 nm and 750 nm).

an atmosphere is considered hazardous if it contains a hazardous gas in excess of 10 percent of the hazardous material's:
svlad2 [7]

Lower flammable limit means the lowest concentration of a material that will propagate a flame.

What is hazardous atmosphere?

It is an atmosphere that may expose employees to risk of death, incapacitation, impairment of ability to self-rescue, injury, or acute illness from one or more of following causes

  • Flammable gas, vapor, or mist in excess of 10 percent of lower flammable limit (LFL)
  • Airborne combustible dust at concentration that meets or exceeds its LFL

What is lower flammable limit?

  • It means the lowest concentration of a material that will propagate a flame.
  • The LFL is usually expressed as percent by volume of material in air (or other oxidant)
  • Atmospheres with concentration of flammable vapors at or above 10 percent of lower explosive limit (LEL) are considered hazardous when located in confined spaces.
  • However, atmospheres with flammable vapors below 10 percent of LEL are not necessarily safe. Such atmospheres are too lean to burn

An undergraduate weighed out 20grams of sodium hydroxide pellets. If Na =23, O = 16 andH = 1, What is the mole of this sodium hy
tatuchka [14]
The answer would be .5 mols because you take the total amount of grams, which is 20, and you had up the molar mass of sodium hydroxide, which would be 40. After you have this you would set this up as a stochiometry equation. With 1 mol on top you dived 20/40 to cancel out your grams. This leaves you with .5 mols
