Answer:

1. NaCl .

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, it is necessary to keep in mind that just ionic compounds are able to conduct electricity and therefore, the more ionic the compound is, the more electricity it conducts. In such a way, we may be able to predict how ionic these compounds are, considering that the electronegativity increases from bottom to top and from left to right.

1. NaCl: this is the most ionic compound since it is at the leftmost group and bonded with chlorine, so this is the most conductive one.

2. Mg(CIO3)2: Mg is bonded to O, not to Cl, which makes the compound ionic but not as ionic as NaCl.

3. NiCl: Ni is more electronegative than Na and Mg, so even when this is ionic, it is not as ionic as NaCl.

4. CaCl2: This is similar to NaCl but since Ca is in group 2A, it is more electronegative than Na, which makes CaCl2 conductive but not as much as NaCl.

Best regards!

A galvanic cell generates a cell potential of 0.32V when operated under standard conditions according to the reaction above. Whi
Ugo [173]

The complete question is shown in the image attached to this answer.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Let us quickly remember that the EMF of a cell under non standard conditions in given by the Nernst equation.

This equation states that;

E = E°cell - 0.592/n log Q

Where

E = EMF under non standard conditions

E°cell= standard EMF of the cell

n = number of electrons transferred

Q = reaction quotient

If the reaction quotient is greater than 1 then cell potential is less than the standard cell potential.

The cell that generates the lowest cell potential is the cell depicted in option C because Q has the greatest positive value(Q<1).

An electron in the hydrogen atom makes a transition from an energy state of principal quantum number ni to the n = 2 state. If t
topjm [15]

Answer:

\boxed{3}

Explanation:

The Rydberg equation gives the wavelength λ for the transitions:

\dfrac{1}{\lambda} = R \left ( \dfrac{1}{n_{i}^{2}} - \dfrac{1}{n_{f}^{2}} \right )

where

R= the Rydberg constant (1.0974 ×10⁷ m⁻¹) and

\text{$n_{i}$ and $n_{f}$ are the numbers of the energy levels}

Data:

n_{f} = 2

λ = 657 nm

Calculation:  

\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{1}{657 \times 10^{-9}} & = & 1.0974 \times 10^{7}\left ( \dfrac{1}{2^{2}} - \dfrac{1}{n_{f}^{2}} \right )\\\\1.522 \times 10^{6} &= &1.0974\times10^{7}\left(\dfrac{1}{4} - \dfrac{1}{n_{f}^{2}} \right )\\\\0.1387 & = &\dfrac{1}{4} - \dfrac{1}{n_{f}^{2}} \\\\-0.1113 & = & -\dfrac{1}{n_{f}^{2}} \\\\n_{f}^{2} & = & \dfrac{1}{0.1113}\\\\n_{f}^{2} & = & 8.98\\n_{f} & = & 2.997 \approx \mathbf{3}\\\end{array}\\\text{The value of $n_{i}$ is }\boxed{\mathbf{3}}
