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.

The equation which we are required to complete can be completed as follows;

  • AgNO3 + KCl ==> KNO3 + AgCl

<h3>Electrochemical series;</h3>

Most substitution reactions involve displacement of metals and non-metals.

The possibility of a substitution reaction to occur is sometimes dependent on the order of preference of the metals in the activity series.

On this note, In the reaction between AgNO3 and KCl, potassium, K displaces silver, Ag and the products of the reaction are; KNO3 and AgCl

Copper (II) Sulfate pentahydrate, CuSO4 X 5H20 is heated in an open crucible to remove the water. (a) Diagram the lab set up cle
balu736 [363]

The water molecules are not completely removed so additional heating is required.

Explanation:

We have the copper (II) sulfate pentehydrate with the chemical formula CuSO₄ · 5H₂O.

molar mass of CuSO₄ · 5H₂O = 159.6 + 5 × 18 = 249.6 g/mole

Knowing this, we devise the following reasoning:

if in       249.6 g of CuSO₄ · 5H₂O there are 90 g of H₂O

then in         8 g of CuSO₄ · 5H₂O there are Y g of H₂O

Y = (8 × 90) / 249.6 = 2.88 g of water

mass of dried CuSO₄ = mass of CuSO₄ · 5H₂O -  mass of H₂O

mass of dried CuSO₄ = 8 - 2.88 = 5.12 g

5.12 g is less that the weighted mass of 6.50 g. We deduce from this that the sample needs additional heating in order to remove all the water (H₂O) molecules.
