Describe the movement of electrons when the atom colors by applying ground state and excitement state?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations.The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum

Explanation:

The electron is jumped into higher level and back into lower level by absorbing and releasing the energy.

The process is called excitation and de-excitation.

Excitation:

When the energy is provided to the atom the electrons by absorbing the energy jump to the higher energy levels. This process is called excitation. The amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the energy difference of orbits.  For example if electron jumped from K to L it must absorbed the energy which is equal the energy difference of these two level. The excited electron thus move back to lower energy level which is K by releasing the energy because electron can not stay longer in higher energy level and comes to ground state.

De-excitation:

When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations. this energy is exactly equal to the energy difference between the orbits. The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum

Why doesn’t a broken wineglass spontaneously fix itself, from a thermodynamic point of view?
Alla [95]
The answer is the option<span> 3.) Fixing a wineglass requires a large decrease in entropy.



Entropy is a termodynamical variable and it is defined as the degree of disorder of the system.



As per the second law of thermodynamics the spontaneous changes only occur when the entropy increases.



</span>Fixing the broken glasses by itself meant to decrease the entropy spontaneusly which violate the principle or second law of thermodynamics. So, it is not possible.

Which gases contribute to the acid rain formation?
dusya [7]
The main chemicals in air pollution that create acid rain are sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen (NOx). Acid rain usually forms high in the clouds where sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides react with water, oxygen, and oxidants. this mixture forms a mild solution of sulfuric acid and nitric acid

Use the Activity Series Chart
omeli [17]

Answer:

Mg

Explanation:

Mg is above Al on the table meaning it is easier to oxidize.

Fe and Zn are below Al on the table showing they are not as reactive.

If a single gold atom has a diameter of 2.9×x10−8 cm, how many atoms thick was rutherford's foil
ale4655 [162]

27,586

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

A single gold atom has a diameter of \boxed{ \ 2.9 \times 10^{-8} \ cm. \ }

From a reference, the Rutherford gold foil used in his scattering experiment had a thickness of approximately \boxed{ \ 8 \times 10^{-3} \ mm. \ }

<u>Question:</u>

How many atoms thick were Rutherford's foil?

<u>The Process:</u>

Convert thickness from mm to cm.

\boxed{ \ 8 \times 10^{-3} \ mm = 8 \times 10^{-3} \times 10{-1} \ cm \ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ 8 \times 10^{-4} \ cm \}

The number of atoms is calculated from gold foil thickness divided by the atomic diameter.

\boxed{ \ = \frac{8 \times 10^{-4} \ cm}{2.9 \times 10^{-8} \ cm} \ }

\boxed{ \ =2.7586 \times 10^4 \ atoms \ }

Therefore, we get an atomic thickness of 27,586 atoms.

<u>Notes:</u>

  • In 1909-1910, Ernest Rutherford with two of his assistants, namely Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden, conducted a series of experiments to find out more about the arrangement of atoms. They fired at a very thin gold plate with high-energy alpha particles.
  • One of their observations is that a small portion of alpha particles are reflected. This greatly surprised Rutherford. The reflected alpha particle must have hit something very dense in the atom. This fact is incompatible with the atomic model proposed by J.J. Thomson where the atoms are described as homogeneous in all parts with electrons and protons evenly distributed.
  • In 1911, Rutherford was able to explain the scattering of alpha rays by proposing ideas about atomic nuclei. According to him, most of the mass and positive charge of atoms are concentrated at the center of the atom, hereinafter referred to as the nucleus.
