Answer:

C. 8 eV

Explanation:

In atoms, the energy of each level is quantised. That is one of the reasons why an electron can not exist between energy levels. Thus, when the electron absorbs energy of 8 ev, it get excited and jumps to energy level 2 which has the current value of energy of the electron.

Thus for the electron to move back to its initial energy level, it must emit the exact energy absorbed for its excitation. Therefore, the likely energy of the photon that will be emitted is 8 ev. This would make the electron to have energy that would make it to exist on energy level 1.

The combustion of carbohydrates and the combustion of fats are both exothermic processes, yet the combustion of carbohydrates is
saveliy_v [14]

Explanation:

Combustion of a compound is the reaction with oxygen , hence , the process of combustion is an oxidation reaction.

The carbohydrates contain more amount of oxygen as compared to the fats ,

Hence ,

carbohydrates , have a lot of oxygen contents , are are already partially oxidized , but fats have lower oxygen content .

Therefore ,

The partially oxidized carbohydrates are very difficult to oxidized in comparison to fats .

An experiment requires that enough C3H8O be used to yield of oxygen .
blsea [12.9K]

Answer: So if you had 570 cm of ribbon, then 570%2F8.5=67.05 which means that about 67 students can do the experiment (round down to the nearest whole number).

Explanation: If you had 8.5 cm of ribbon, then only 8.5%2F8.5=1 student can do the experiment. If you had 17 cm of ribbon, then 17%2F8.5=2 students can do the experiment.

Two 10g blocks, one of copper and one of iron, were heated from 300 K to 400K (a temperature difference of 100 K).
12345 [234]

1) 385 J

2) 450 J

Explanation:

1)

The amount of energy that must be absorbed by a certain substance in order to increase its temperature by \Delta T is given by the equation:

Q=mC\Delta T

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

\Delta T is the increase in temperature of the substance

For the block of copper in this problem, we have:

m = 10 g is the mass

C=0.385 J/gK is the specific heat capacity of copper

\Delta T=400-300 = 100 K is the change in temperature

So, the energy absorbed by the block of copper is

Q=(10)(0.385)(100)=385 J

2)

Similarly for the block of iron, the energy absorbed by the iron is given by

Q=mC\Delta T

where

m is the mass of the block of iron

C is its specific heat capacity of iron

\Delta T is the increase in temperature of the block

Here we have:

m = 10 g is the mass of the block

C=0.450 J/gK is the specific heat capacity of iron

\Delta T=400-300 = 100 K is the change in temperature

So, the energy absorbed by the block of iron is

Q=(10)(0.450)(100)=450 J
