How does an electron reach an excited state

Chemistry

When an electron temporarily occupies an energy state greater than its ground state, it is in an excited state. An electron can become excited if it is given extra energy, such as if it absorbs a photon, or packet of light, or collides with a nearby atom or particle.

When an electron quickly occupies an strength state increased than its ground state, it is in an excited state. An electron can end up excited if it is given greater energy, such as if it absorbs a photon, or packet of light, or collides with a close by atom or particle.

When 40g of ammonium nitrate explode 14g of nitrogen and 8g of oxygen form. How many grams of water form?
blagie [28]

answer and Explanation:

the same amount would have to stay in grams, so if 14 grams of nitrogen is formed, then 8 grams of oxygen, add those two together and you get 22. and that's 22 of the 40 grams used, so 40 su

Gold has density of 19.3 g/cm3; how many grams of gold are in a 16.0 cm3 gold bar?
Andre45 [30]
To determine the mass of gold, we simply multiply the density and volume. Density is a value for mass, such as kg, divided by a value for volume, such as m3. Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of that substance per unit volume. We do as follows:

mass = density x volume
mass = 19.3 g/cm^3 ( 16.0 cm^3 )
mass = 308.8 g

A waste treatment pond is 50 m long and 25 m wide, and has an average depth of 2 m. The density of the waste is 75.3lbm/ft^3 .Ca
umka21 [38]

Answer:

W = 6.65 \cdot 10^{6} lbf

Explanation:

To find the weight (W) of the pond contents first we need to use the following equation:

W = m\cdot g   (1)

Where m the mass and g is the gravity  

Also, we have that the mass is:

m = \rho*V  (2)    

Where ρ is the density and V the volume

We cand calculate the volume as follows:

V = L*w*d   (3)

Where L is the length, w is the wide and d is the depth  

By entering equation (2) and (3) into (1) we have:

W = \rho*L*w*d*g

W = 75.3 lbm/ft^{3}*50 m*25 m*2 m*9.81 m/s^{2}  

W = 75.3 lbm/ft^{3}*\frac{(1 ft)^{3}}{(0.3048 m)^{3}}*\frac{0.454 kg}{1 lbm}*50 m*25 m*2 m*9.81 m/s^{2} = 2.96 \cdot 10^{7} N}*\frac{0.2248 lbf}{1 N} = 6.65\cdot 10^{6} lbf              

Therefore, the weight of the pond is 6.65x10⁶ lbf.

I hope it helps you!

For any spontaneous process, universe entropy intensifies is known as the __________ law of thermodynamics.
FrozenT [24]

For any spontaneous process, universe entropy intensifies is known as the second law of thermodynamics.

<h3>What is entropy?</h3>

Entropy is defined as the degree of randomness or disorderliness of a system.

The entropy of a system generally increases for any spontaneous process.

This is according to the second law of thermodynamics.

In conclusion, the entropy of a system is the a measure of randomness of the system.
