Explain specifically how an electron gives off light in an atom.

Chemistry
1 answer:
exis [7]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Then, at some point, these higher energy electrons give up their "extra" energy in the form of a photon of light, and fall back down to their original energy level.

Explanation:

When properly stimulated, electrons in these materials move from a lower level of energy up to a higher level of energy and occupy a different orbital.

Which feature is most likely found at a divergent boundary?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Most divergent plate boundaries are underwater and form submarine mountain ranges called oceanic spreading ridges. While the process of forming these mountain ranges is volcanic, volcanoes and earthquakes along oceanic spreading ridges are not as violent as they are at convergent plate boundaries.

At the beginning of an experiment, a scientist has 176 grams of radioactive goo. After 165 minutes, her sample has decayed to 5.
Paul [167]
The half-life equation is written as:

An = Aoe^-kt

We use this equation for the solution. We do as follows:

5.5 = 176e^-k(165)
k = 0.02
<span>What is the half-life of the goo in minutes? 
</span>
0.5 = e^-0.02t
t = 34.66 minutes <----HALF-LIFE


Find a formula for G(t) , the amount of goo remaining at time t.G(t)=? 

G(t) = 176e^-0.02t

How many grams of goo will remain after 50 minutes? 

G(t) = 176e^-0.02(50) = 64.75 g

What is radioactive decay?
swat32

Answer:

Radioactive decay is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by radiation. A material containing unstable nuclei is considered radioactive. Three of the most common types of decay are alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma decay, all of which involve emitting one or more particles or photons.

Four oranges were placed in a series circuit. Approximately what voltage did this produce?
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Four times the original amount if only one orange was used

Explanation:

We can assume that the oranges all have equal voltages. Connecting them in series will have an increasing effect on the voltage delivered. In our case, this will produce 4 times the voltage of the circuit when only one orange is used.

Whenever simple cells are connected in series, the voltages of the individual cells are added up to form the voltage of the whole circuit.

Let us assume that the voltage of each of the oranges is approximately 0.9 volts. The Voltage produced when the 4 oranges are joined in series is 0.9 + 0.9 + 0.9 + 0.9 = 3.6 volts
