Why do electrons falling into different orbits give off characteristics wavelengths?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Afina-wow [57]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Because the difference in energy between orbits is different in different types of atoms, moving electrons between different orbits requires photons carrying different amounts of energy (different wavelengths).

Boron has primarily two isotopes, one with an atomic mass of 11.0 amu and another with an atomic mass of 10.0 amu. If the abunda
Masja [62]

Answer:

The atomic mass of the boron atom would be <em>10.135</em>

Explanation:

This is generally known as relative atomic mass.

Relative atomic mass or atomic weight is a physical quantity defined as the ratio of the average mass of atoms of a chemical element in a given sample to the atomic mass of 1/12 of the mass of a carbon-12 atom. Since both quantities in the ratio are masses, the resulting value is dimensionless; hence the value is said to be relative and does not have a unit.

<em>Note that the relative atomic mass of atoms is not always a whole number because of it being isotopic in nature.</em>

  • <em>Divide each abundance by 100 then multiply by atomic mass</em>
  • <em>Do that for each isotope, then add the two result. Thus</em>

Relative atomic mass of Boron = (18.5/100 x 11) + (81/100 x 10)

                                                 = 2.035 + 8.1

                                                 = 10.135

For the reaction HNO3 + Mg(OH)2→ Mg(NO3)2 + H2O, how many grams of magnesium nitrate are produced from 8.00 mol of nitric acid,
ollegr [7]

Answer:

tha mass of magnesium nitrate is 592g

Explanation:

from a balanced chemical equation

2HNO3 + Mg(OH)2→ Mg(NO3)2 + 2H2O

2 mol of nitric acid is equivalent to 1 mol of magnesium nitrate. then 8 mol of nitric acid will be equivalent to 4 mol of magnesium nitrate.

Find [cu2+] in a solution saturated with cu4(oh)6(so4) if [oh − ] is fixed at 2.3 ✕ 10−6 m. note that cu4(oh)6(so4) gives 1 mol
ki77a [65]
<span>

</span>Cu_4(OH)_6(SO_4)
<span>
You have OH-  conc = </span>2.3 ✕ 10−6 m
From the formula, you can observe the ratio of Cu2+ to OH- is  4 : 6 = 2:3

So, for 2.3 ✕ 10−6 m OH-
[Cu2+] = \frac{2}{3} \times 2.3 \times 10^{-6}

= 1.53  \times 10^{-6} &#10;

What relationship exists between the mass number of an element and the isotopes of that element?
labwork [276]
The mass number plays an important role for elements and their isotopes. Mass number comes from the addition of protons and neutrons (their weight). Isotopes are the elements, but with a different number of neutrons. So in turn, by subtracting the number of protons (atomic number) from the mass, you can find the number of neutrons.

What is the mass of 2.90 ×1022 molecules of NaOH (Molar mass = 40.0 g/mol)?
ivann1987 [24]
40.0 g ( 1 mole ) --------------- 6.02x10²³ molecules
      ? ? --------------------------- 2.90x10²² molecules

mass = 2.90x10²² * 40.0 /  6.02x10²³

mass = 1.16x10²⁴ / 6.02x10²³

mass = 1.9269 g

hope this helps!
