Answer:

-1.94  * 10^-18 J

Since the electron moved from a higher to a lower energy level (n = 3 → n = 1) it is an emission.

Explanation:

From Rydberg equation;

E = -RH(1/n^2final - 1/n^2initial)

For a transition from  n = 3 → n = 1

RH = 2.18 * 10^-18 J

E = -(2.18 * 10^-18) (1/1^2 - (1/3^2)

E = -(2.18 * 10^-18) (1-1/9)

E= -(2.18 * 10^-18) (8/9)

E = -1.94  * 10^-18 J

A sample of vinegar was found to have an acetic acid concentration of 0.8846 m. What is the acetic acid % by mass? Assume the de
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

5.3%

Explanation:

Let the volume be 1 L

volume , V = 1 L

use:

number of mol,

n = Molarity * Volume

= 0.8846*1

= 0.8846 mol

Molar mass of CH3COOH,

MM = 2*MM(C) + 4*MM(H) + 2*MM(O)

= 2*12.01 + 4*1.008 + 2*16.0

= 60.052 g/mol

use:

mass of CH3COOH,

m = number of mol * molar mass

= 0.8846 mol * 60.05 g/mol

= 53.12 g

volume of solution = 1 L = 1000 mL

density of solution = 1.00 g/mL

Use:

mass of solution = density * volume

= 1.00 g/mL * 1000 mL

= 1000 g

Now use:

mass % of acetic acid = mass of acetic acid * 100 / mass of solution

= 53.12 * 100 / 1000

= 5.312 %

≅ 5.3%

How many moles of ammonia (nh3 will be produced from 4.0 moles of nitrogen (n2?
Lana71 [14]
Standard equation would be N2(g)+3H2(g)==>2NH3(g), so through stoichiometry, (4 mol N2)(2mol NH3/1 mol N2), assuming excess H2, would yield 8 moles of NH3.

I need help with number 8 please help ASAP.
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

33.33% = 33%

Explanation:

MgCO3(s) + 2HCl (aq) --> MgCl2(aq) + H20(l) + CO2(g)

1 mole of MCO3 will produce → 1 mole of CO2

We need to get the number of mole of CO2:

and when we have 0.22 g of CO2, so number of mole = mass / molar mass

Moles = 0.22 g / 44 g/mol = 0.005 mole

Moles of Mg = moles of CO2 = 0.005 mole

Mass of Mg = moles * molar mass

= 0.005 * 84 /mol = 0.42 g

Percent of MgCO3 by mass of Mg = 0.42 g / 1.26 * 100

=33.33 %
