Answer:

n = 5 to n = 6 absorption

n = 9 to n = 6 emission

n = 6 to n = 4 emission

n = 6 to n = 7 absorption

Explanation:

According to the Bohr's model of the atom. An electron in an atom may absorb energy and move from a lower energy level to a higher energy level. This requires absorption of energy that is equal to the energy difference between the two levels.

Similarly, an electron may move from a higher to a lower energy level, releasing energy that is equal to the energy difference between the higher and the lower level. This is known as emission.

Hence, if the electron is moving from a lower energy level to a higher energy level, an absorption has taken place, e.g n = 5 to n = 6

When an electron moves from a higher energy level to a lower energy level, an emission has taken place e.g n = 9 to n = 6

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of oxygen gas consumed by mouse is 0.202 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Initial pressure of air = 769.0 torr

Final pressure of air = 717.1 torr

Pressure of oxygen = Pressure decreased = Initial pressure - Final pressure = (769.0 - 717.1) torr = 51.9 torr

To calculate the amount of oxygen gas consumed, we use the equation given by ideal gas which follows:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 51.9 torr

V = Volume of the gas = 2.20 L

T = Temperature of the gas = 292 K

R = Gas constant = $62.364\text{ L. Torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

n = number of moles of oxygen gas = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$51.9torr\times 2.20L=n\times 62.364\text{ L. Torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 292K\\\\n=\frac{51.9\times 2.20}{62.364\times 292}=0.0063mol$

To calculate the mass from given number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Moles of oxygen gas = 0.0063 moles

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0063mol=\frac{\text{Mass of oxygen gas}}{32g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of oxygen gas}=(0.0063mol\times 32g/mol)=0.202g$

Hence, the amount of oxygen gas consumed by mouse is 0.202 grams.

Once the water evaporates, you will start to see the minerals that were present in the water before it changed state. If the water was from the ocean, you will see salt crystals in the evaporated water. If the water was fresh, you may see other minerals typically found in fresh water.
