It takes 338. kJ/mom to break a carbon-chlorine single bond. Calculate the maximum wavelength of light for which a carbon-chlori
Vesnalui [34]

Answer: The maximum wavelength of light for which a carbon-chlorine Single bond could be broken by absorbing a single photon is 354 nm

Explanation:

The relation between energy and wavelength of light is given by Planck's equation, which is:

E=\frac{Nhc}{\lambda}

where,

E = energy of the light  = 338kJ=338000J    (1kJ=1000J)

N= avogadro's number

h = Planck's constant

c = speed of light

\lambda = wavelength of light

338\times 1000J=\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}\times 6.6\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^{8}}{\lambda}    

{\lambda}=0.354\times 10^{-6}m=354nm     (1nm=10^{-9}m

Thus the maximum wavelength is 354 nm

1. Write the balanced chemical equation for the synthesis of magnesium phosphide from its elements, including the word “energy”
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

3Mg(s) +2P(s) -------> Mg3P2(s) + energy

Keq= [Mg3P2]/[Mg]^3 [P]^2

Explanation:

The equation for the formation of magnesium phosphide from its elements is;

3Mg(s) +2P(s) -------> Mg3P2(s) + energy

Hence we can see that three moles of magnesium atoms combines with two moles of phosphorus atoms to yield one mole of magnesium phosphide. The equation written above is the balanced chemical reaction equation for the formation of the magnesium phosphide.

The equilibrium expression for the reaction K(eq) will be given by;

Keq= [Mg3P2]/[Mg]^3 [P]^2

Assuming an electron is a hydrogen atom can undergo any of the transitions below, thus changing its energy. Which transition is
inn [45]

Answer:

n = 3 to n = 5

Explanation:

According to the Bohr's model of the atom, electrons in an atom absorb energy to move from a lower to higher energy level.

We must note that as we progress away from the nucleus, the energy levels of electrons become closer together. The energy difference between successive levels decreases and the wavelength of light associated with such transitions become longer.

Hence,the absorption of light of the longest wavelength corresponds to n = 3 to n = 5

How to separate a solid for a solution
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Evaporation is the method of separating a solid (solute) from a homogeneous solution.

in this method, the solution is heated until the solvent gets evaporated in the form of vapor and the solute is left behind as residue.
