Neutrons are the subatomic particles present in an atom having no charge i.e. neutral and mass of the neutron is approximately same as the mass of the proton.

Number of neutrons is equal to the subtraction of atomic mass and atomic number.

Number of neutrons = Atomic mass - atomic number

Atomic number of gold is 79 and atomic mass of gold is 198 amu.

Substitute the above value in formula, we get

Number of neutrons = 198-79

= 119

Thus, number of neutrons = 119

Explain how Niels Bohr’s observation of hydrogen’s flame test and line spectrum led to his model of the atoms containing electro
larisa86 [58]

In his observation, he notices that the hydrogen atom only emitted light of a fixed wavelength. He was able to discover that the electrons only orbit the nucleus of the atom at discrete orbits. When the electron ‘jumps’ from a higher to lower level orbit, it emits a wavelength. These wavelengths are unique to atoms of an element and can be used to identify them hence he led the way to the establishment of the light spectrum.

the height of a column of mercury in barometer is 754.3mm. what us the atmospheric pressure in atm. in kPa.
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
1 atm = 760mmHg
754.3 mmHg / 760 mmHg * 1atm = 0.99 atm
760 mmHg = 101.3 KPa
754.3 mmHg/ 760mmHg *101.3 KPa = 100.54 KPa

The electronic transition in a hydrogen atom from n = 7 to n = 2 emits electromagnetic radiation having a longer wavelength than
Tema [17]

Answer: I'll leave the answer rounded to three sig figs.

mark me brainlist

So, you can say that in a hydrogen atom, an electron located on  

n

i

=

2

that absorbs a photon of energy  

4.85

⋅

10

−

19

 

J

can make the jump to  

n

f

=

6

.

Explanation:

The question wants you to determine the energy that the incoming photon must have in order to allow the electron that absorbs it to jump from  

n

i

=

2

to  

n

f

=

6

.

A good starting point here will be to calculate the energy of the photon emitted when the electron falls from  

n

i

=

6

to  

n

f

=

2

by using the Rydberg equation.
