Answer:

Absorbs energy

Explanation:

As an electron in an atom moves from the ground state to the excited state, the electron absorbs energy.

Electrons moves around in permissible orbits around the nucleus of an atom.

An electron in a certain energy level has a definite amount of energy associated with it at that level.
When an electron in ground state absorbs energy, it moves to a higher energy level.
When an electron in excited state loses energy, it moves to a lower energy level.

The transition of electrons from one level to another involves loss or gain of energy.

0.00000000082 -<br> scientific notation

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

8.2 x 106^-11

Explanation:

To begin this problem you must remember the basic rule of scientific notation, which is, must be between 1-10. .000000000082 is much smaller than 1. However by moving the decimal 11 spots to the right, we can make it 8.2

Continue to move the decimal to the right until the value is in the 1-10 range. Make sure to count the moves to the right.

Once the decimal is in the right spot count the spots moved.

Since the number is wayyy smaller than the answer given the number will be negative 10^-11, in order to make it what is was before.

Guillaume Amontons first took a stab at measuring absolute zero in 1702. What would be the most reasonable way it would have bee

Tema [17]

The most reasonable way to measure absolute zero would have been to extrapolate the ideal gas law.

<h3>What is Absolute zero?</h3>

This is referred to the temperature at which a thermodynamic system has the lowest form of energy.

Guillaume Amontons used gas equation to prove that absence of heat was theoretically possible which would have involved only extrapolating the ideal gas law.

Calculate the maximum KE and velocity of an electron from zinc by a 275nm photon

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Kinetic energy: $6.024*10^{-20}$

Velocity: $3.64*10^{5}$

Explanation:

From the equations of the photo-electric effect,

We know:

$hv=hv_0+K.E$

Where,

1. $h$ is the Planck's constant which is $6.626*10^{-34}$

2. $v,v_0$ are the frequency of light emitted and threshold frequencies respectively.

3. $K.E$ is the kinetic energy of the electrons emitted.

By fact, we come to know that the threshold frequency of Zn is 300nm

And also $v=\frac{c}{d}$

Where ,

1. $c$ is the speed of light $=3*10^8$

2. $d$ is the wavelength.

Thus,

$\frac{hc}{d}=\frac{hc}{d_0}+K.E\\K.E=\frac{hc}{d}-\frac{hc}{d_0}\\K.E=hc*(\frac{1}{d}-\frac{1}{d_0})\\K.E=6.626*10^{-34}*3*10^8*(\frac{1}{275*10^{-9}}-\frac{1}{300*10^{-9}})\\K.E=6.024*10^{-20}kgm^2s^{-2}$

Now to find velocity:

$K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\v^2=1.324*10^{11}\\v=3.64*10^5$
