Classically, if you put a particle in a box, it can have Zero kinetic energy (ie the particle is not moving). But a quantum part

icle always has some kinetic energy. The difference between the lowest value of the potential energy and the energy of the lowest energy eigenstate is called the Zero Point Energy. Consider a 1D box that is one nanometer in length. What is the zero point energy for an electron, a proton, a methane molecule, and a gold atom in Joules

Answer:

Electron = 6.030 × 10^-21 J.

Proton = 3.37 × 10^-23J.

Methane = 2.06 × 10^-24J.

Gold = 1.67 × 10^-25J.

Explanation:

Without mincing words let's dive straight into the solution to the question above.

One an energy formula will be used in solving this question. This formula is given below;

Energy, E = (n^2 × h^2)/8 × m× L^2.

Where m = mass, n = number of energy level, h = planck's constant and L = length.

Therefore, for electron;

Energy, E = (6.626 × 10^−34)^2/ ( 8 × 9.1 × 10^-31 × [1 x 10^-9m]^2 =6.030× 10^-21J.

For proton;

Energy, E = (6.626 × 10^−34 )^2 / (8

× 1.626 × 10^-27 × [1 × 10^-9]^2) = 3.37 × 10^-23J.

For methane;

Energy, E = (6.626 × 10^-34) ^2/ ( 8 × 2.66 × 10^-26 × [1 × 10^-9]^2 = 2.06 × 10^-24J.

For Gold;

Energy, E =( 6.626 × 10^−34)^2 / ( 8 × 3.27 × 10^-25 × [ 1 × 10^-9]^2) = 1.67 × 10^-25J.

NB: n = 1 = Zero Point Energy.

List the number of each type of atom on the right side of the equation hbr(aq)+2naoh(aq)→2nabr(s)+h2o(l)
ser-zykov [4K]

On the basis of the given unbalanced equation, that is:

HBr (aq) + 2NaOH (aq) → 2NaBr (s) + H2O (l)

On the right side of the equation, there are 2 atoms of sodium (Na), 2 atoms of bromine (Br), 2 atoms of hydrogen (H), and 1 atom of oxygen (O₂).

After balancing the equation correctly we get:

HBr (aq) + NaOH (aq) → NaBr (s) + H2O (l)

On the right side, one atom of Na, 1 atom of Br, 1 atom of H and one atom of O₂.

For the reaction 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl, how many grams of chlorine gas are required to react completely with 57.5 mol of sodium?
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

1019.27 g.

Explanation:

  • For the balanced reaction:

<em>2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl,</em>

It is clear 2 moles of Na with 1 mole of Cl₂ to produce 2 moles NaCl.

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of Cl₂ is needed to react with 57.5 mol Na:

2 moles of Na need → 1 mol of Cl₂, from the stichiometry.

57.5 moles of Na need → ??? mol of Cl₂.

<em>∴ The no. of moles of Cl₂ is needed to react with 57.5 mol Na =</em> (1 mol)(57.5 mol)/((2 mol) <em>= 28.75 mol.</em>

<em>∴ the mass of Cl₂ is needed to react with 57.5 mol Na = (no. of moles of Cl₂)(molar mass of Cl₂) =</em> (28.75 mol)(35.453 g/mol) <em>= 1019.27 g.</em>
