Layman series describe the ultraviolet emission lines that the hydrogen atom emits when an electron is moved from a higher energy level to level 1.

For n = 2
The wavelength = 121.5 nm
velocity = wavelength * frequency
frequency = velocity / wavelength
frequency = (3 * 10^8) / (121.5 * 10^9) = 2.469 * 10^15 Hz

What is the minimum of acetic anhydride (102.1 g/mol) required to react completely with the 2.94 grams of salicylic acid? What v
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

a) the minimun of acetic anhydride required for the  reaction is 2.175 g (CH3CO)2O

b) V acetic anhydride = 2.010 mL

Explanation:

  • balanced reaction:

      C6H4OHCOOH + (CH3CO)2O  ↔  C9H8O4 + C2H4O2

⇒ mol salicylic acid = 2.94 g C6H4OHCOOH * ( mol C6H4OHCOOH / 138.121 g ) = 0.0213 mol C6H4OHCOOH

⇒ mol acetic anhydride = 0.0213 mol C6H4OHCOOH * ( mol (CH3CO)2O /  mol  C6H4OHCOOH ) = 0.0213 mol (CHECO)2O

⇒ g acetic anhydride = 0.0213 mol * ( 102.1 g/mol ) = 2.175 g CH3CO)2O

b) V = 2.175 g (CH3CO)2 * ( mL / 1.082 g ) = 2.010 mL (CH3CO)2O

Strontium-90 is a radioisotope that will decrease in mass by one-half every 29 years. How many years will it take for a 10.0-gra
Lelechka [254]

Answer: It will take 29 years for a 10.0-gram sample of strontium-90 to decay to 5.00 grams

Explanation:

Radioactive decay process is a type of process in which a less stable nuclei decomposes to a stable nuclei by releasing some radiations or particles like alpha, beta particles or gamma-radiations. The radioactive decay follows first order kinetics.

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

Half life is represented by t_{\frac{1}{2}

t_{\frac{1}{2}=\frac{0.693}{\lambda}

\lambda = rate constant

Given : Strontium-90 decreases in mass  by one-half every 29 years , that is half life of Strontium-90  is 29 years.

As half life is independent of initial concentration, it will take 29 years for a 10.0-gram sample of strontium-90 to decay to 5.00 grams as the amount gets half.

How have ideas about the atom changed in the last two centureies?
dsp73
In the past a scientist named dalton produced an atomic theory. There were certain problems regarding his views. So, later on scientists like chadwick, rutherford and thompson added some fresh light for the real identification of the atom.
dalton said the atom was the smallest unit and it CANNOT BE DIVIDED ANY FURTHER.
NOTE... this was renected with the discovery of the proton, neutron and electron as the sub atomic particles.
