Explain why you usually can't use just a single spectrum line to confirm the identity of an element

Chemistry

Agata [3.3K]3 years ago

You can't usually just use a  single spectrum line to confirm the identity of an element because there are cases that the emission line id not clearly defined.  When the emission line is very weak compared to surrounding noise, in which case the more datapoints you have to build up confidence for the existence of a particular emission spectra, the better.

2. Balance the equation below, and answer the following question: What volume of chlorine gas, measured at STP, is needed to com
Juliette [100K]
Balanced equation: 2Na(s) + Cl₂(g) ---> 2NaCl(s)

when we have STP conditions, we can use this conversion: 1 mol = 22.4 L

first, we have to convert grams to molecules using the molar mass, and then use mole to mole ratio from the balanced equation. 

molar mass of Na= 23.0 g/mol
 ratio: 2 mol Na= 1 mol Cl₂ (based on coefficients of balanced equation)

calculations:

6.25 g Na ( \frac{1 mol Na}{23.0 g} ) ( \frac{1 mol Cl_2}{2 mol Na} ) ( \frac{22.4 L}{1 mol} )= 3.04 L

Which of the following correctly describes a compound?
Nutka1998 [239]

A compound is a pure substance formed by the chemical combination of two or more different elements.


A compound may be splitted into simpler substances by chemical reactions, and has different properties to those of the elements that form it.


The composition of a compound is fixed: every piece of a compound has the same kind of atoms, bonded in the same way and proportion.


Some examples of compounds are H₂O, NaCl, H₂O₂, CH₃COOH. As you see, they have a chemical formula which states the kind and number of the atoms that form them.


They are different to mixtures, which are formed by two or more compounds, in a variable proportion, and can be separated by physical media. Some examples of mixtures are the solutions (e.g. NaCl dissolved in H₂O), and some solid mixtures (e.g. a mixture of marbles and sand).

What is heat energy in science ​
Ket [755]

Answer:

Heat energy is the result of the movement of tiny particles called atoms, molecules or ions in solids, liquids and gases. Heat energy can be transferred from one object to another. the transfer or flow from one object to another is called heat.

hopefully this helped :3

Which statement describes J.J. Thomson’s plum-pudding model of the atom?
ra1l [238]
Option C: the electrons are embedded in a positive sphere.

As we know that was a wrong model and nowadays the electrons are considered to be around the nucleus, in regions called orbitals.
