It should be potential energy!!!
<u>Given:</u>
The initial energy of the electron Einitial = 16.32 * 10⁻¹⁹ J
The energy released i.e the change in energy ΔE = 5.4 * 10⁻¹⁹ J
<u>To determine:</u>
The final energy state Efinal of the electron
<u>Explanation:</u>
Since energy is being released, this suggests that Efinal < Einitial
i.e. ΔE = Einitial - Efinal
Efinal = Einitial - ΔE = (16.32 - 5.4)*10⁻¹⁹ = 10.92 * 10⁻¹⁹ J
Ans: A)
The electron moved down to an energy level and has an energy of 10.92 * 10⁻¹⁹ J
Answer: (D) Are there solvents mixed in (or is it water based)?
Answer:
HF has the higher boiling point because HF molecules are more polar. Part B: CHBr3 molecules possess stronger intermolecular interaction due to higher molar mass than CHCl3
Explanation:
Fluorine is more electronegative than chlorine. This implies that HF is more polar and possess stronger hydrogen bonds than HCl molecules.
In part B, the magnitude of dispersion forces depend on molar mass, the greater the molar mass, the greater the magnitude of dispersion forces between molecules, hence CHBr3 has a greater boiling point than CHCl3
