Answer:

KBr

Explanation:

A metal has a very high melting point. Aluminum is a metal.

Ionic solids do not conduct electricity in the solid state. However, when the solids are melted, they conduct electricity.

KBr is an ionic substance, it can only conduct electricity in molten form because the ions are locked up in the solid.

6.02 kJ>mol. When a small ice cube at -10°C is put into a cup of water at room temperature, which of the following plays a gr
9966 [12]

Answer:

Heat transfer during melting of ice plays greater role in cooling of liquid water.

Explanation:

Temperature of ice = -10 °c

Temperature of water = 0 °c

When ice cube is dipped in to the water.the heat transfer

Q = m c ΔT

⇒ Q = 1 × 2.01 × 10

⇒ Q = 20.1 KJ

Heat transfer during melting of ice Q_{melt} = latent heat of ice

Latent heat of ice = 334 KJ

⇒ Q_{melt} = 334 KJ

Heat transfer during melting of ice is greater value than heat transfer during warming of ice from -10°C to 0°C.

Thus heat transfer during melting of ice plays greater role in cooling of liquid water.

Microwave radiation has a wavelength on the order of 1.0 cm. Calculate the frequency and the energy of a single photon of this r
denis23 [38]

Answer :

(1) The frequency of photon is, 3\times 10^{10}Hz

(2) The energy of a single photon of this radiation is 1.988\times 10^{-23}J/photon

(3) The energy of an Avogadro's number of photons of this radiation is, 11.97 J/mol

Explanation : Given,

Wavelength of photon = 1.0cm=0.01m     (1 m = 100 cm)

(1) Now we have to calculate the frequency of photon.

Formula used :

\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}

where,

\nu = frequency of photon

\lambda = wavelength of photon

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^8m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\nu=\frac{3\times 10^8m/s}{0.01m}

\nu=3\times 10^{10}s^{-1}=3\times 10^{10}Hz    (1Hz=1s^{-1})

The frequency of photon is, 3\times 10^{10}Hz

(2) Now we have to calculate the energy of photon.

Formula used :

E=h\times \nu

where,

\nu = frequency of photon

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

E=(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times (3\times 10^{10}s^{-1})

E=1.988\times 10^{-23}J/photon

The energy of a single photon of this radiation is 1.988\times 10^{-23}J/photon

(3) Now we have to calculate the energy in J/mol.

E=1.988\times 10^{-23}J/photon

E=(1.988\times 10^{-23}J/photon)\times (6.022\times 10^{23}photon/mol)

E=11.97J/mol

The energy of an Avogadro's number of photons of this radiation is, 11.97 J/mol

Temka [501]

Answer;

Iodine

Explanation;

Electron configurations are a way of keeping track of the location of the electrons around the nucleus.

Iodine is an element which belongs to the halogen family. The halogen group includes fluorine, chlorine, bromine, astatine, and iodine.

A neutral iodine atom would also have 53 electrons. Its ground state electron configuration would be:
