The original or accepted value for the percent by mass of water in a hydrate = 36%
Percen by mass of water in the hydrate determined by the student
in the laboratory = 37.8%
So the difference between the actual and the percent by mass in water determined by student = (37.8 - 36.0)%
= 1.8%
So the percentage of error made by the student = (1.8/36) * 100 percent
= (18/360) * 100 percent
= ( 1/20) * 100 percent
= 5 percent
So the student makes an error of 5%. Option "1" is the correct option.
The number of protons in the nucleus of the atom is equal to the atomic number (Z). The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons.
Answer:
a) The wavelength is around 33.8 nm = 3.38*10⁻¹ nm
b) Ultraviolet
Explanation:
a) The energy (E) of a photon is related to its wavelength (λ) by the Planck's equation:

where h = Planck's constant = 6.626*10^-34 Js
c = speed of light = 3*10^8 m/s
E = 3.55*10^6 J/mol
The energy in terms of J/photon is:

Based on eq(1)
\lambda = h\frac{c}{E}=6.626*10^{-34}Js*\frac{3*10^{8}m/s}{5.89*10^{-18}J}=3.38*10^{-8}m
The wavelength is around 33.8 nm = 3.38*10⁻¹ nm
b) In the electromagnetic spectrum the ultraviolet range extends from 390 nm-8.82 nm
The calculated wavelength of 33.8 nm should fall in the UV range.
