Calculate the energy change when an electron moves from n=5 to n=7. Explain/show work please.
Korolek [52]

Answer: E = 1.55 ⋅ 10 − 19 J

Explanation:  

The energy transition will be equal to  1.55 ⋅ 10 − 1 J .  

So, you know your energy levels to be n = 5 and n = 3. Rydberg's equation will allow you calculate the wavelength of the photon emitted by the electron during this transition

1 λ  = R ⋅ ( 1 n 2 final  − 1 n 2 initial  ) , where λ - the wavelength of the emitted photon; R

- Rydberg's constant -  1.0974 ⋅ 10 7 m − 1 ; n final - the final energy level - in your case equal to 3; n initial - the initial energy level - in your case equal to 5. So, you've got all you need to solve for  λ , so 1 λ  =

1.0974 ⋅10  7 m − 1 ⋅ (....     −152

Give a reason why ammonium salts are formed when Ammonia reacts with dilute acids in the gaseous or aq. medium.
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Ammonia in the gaseous form or in aqueous solution neutralises acids forming the respective ammonium salts because it is basic in nature.

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

What changes do you notice? The white you see have undergone coral bleaching. At high temperatures, corals may lose their zooxanthellae, causing corals to lose their color and their main source of food. Once bleaching occurs, the coral colony usually dies.
