A student lives in a place that receives lots of snow and ice during the winter. The student has observed that the highway depar

tment spreads salt on the road after a snowfall. Which of the following correctly explains why the highway department uses salt on the roads?
Salt lowers the freezing point of water, which makes the melted snow on the road less likely to form ice.

Salt raises the freezing point of water, which makes the melted snow on the road less likely to form ice.

Salt raises the vapor pressure of water, which makes the melted snow more likely to evaporate before it freezes.

Salt lowers the osmotic pressure of water, which makes the melted snow more likely to be absorbed into the ground before it freezes.

When a hydrogen atom makes the transition from the second excited state to the ground state (at -13.6 eV) the energy of the phot
viktelen [127]

Answer : The energy of the photon emitted is, -12.1 eV

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the 'n^{th}' orbit of hydrogen atom.

Formula used :

E_n=-13.6\times \frac{Z^2}{n^2}ev

where,

E_n = energy of n^{th} orbit

n = number of orbit

Z = atomic number  of hydrogen atom = 1

Energy of n = 1 in an hydrogen atom:

E_1=-13.6\times \frac{1^2}{1^2}eV=-13.6eV

Energy of n = 2 in an hydrogen atom:

E_3=-13.6\times \frac{1^2}{3^2}eV=-1.51eV

Energy change transition from n = 1 to n = 3 occurs.

Let energy change be E.

E=E_-E_3=(-13.6eV)-(-1.51eV)=-12.1eV

The negative sign indicates that energy of the photon emitted.

Thus, the energy of the photon emitted is, -12.1 eV
