Answer:

The wavelength of sunlight is required to break the bond in one oxygen molecule is 242 nm.

Explanation:

Energy required to break the 1 mol oxygen-oxygen bond:

=495 kJ=495000J

1 mol = 6.022\times 10^{23} molecules

Energy required to break 1 molecule of oxygen molecule= E

= E=\frac{495000 J}{6.022\times 10^{23}}=8.219\times 10^{-19} J

The energy required to break the  1 molecule of oxygen is equal to enrgy of one photon of a sunlight.

E=\frac{h\times c}{\lambda}

where,

\lambda = wavelength of the light

E = energy of the photon

h = Planck's constant = 6.63\times 10^{-34}Js

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^8m/s

\lambda=\frac{h\times c}{E}

\lambda =\frac{6.63\times 10^{-34}Js \times 3\times 10^8m/s}{8.219\times 10^{-19} J}=2.42\times 10^{-7} m=242 nm

The wavelength of sunlight is required to break the bond in one oxygen molecule is 242 nm.

A 25 liter balloon holding 1.5 moles of carbon dioxide leaks. If we are able to determine that 0.9 moles of carbon dioxide escap
ad-work [718]

Answer:

10 Litre

Explanation:

Given that ::

v1 = 25L ; n1 = 1.5 mole ; v2 =? ; n2 = (1.5-0.9) = 0.6 mole

Using the relation :

(n2 * v1) / n1 = (n2 * v2) / n2

v2 = (n2 * v1) / n1

v2 = (0.6 mole * 25 Litre) / 1.5 mole

v2 = 15 / 1.5 litre

v2 = 10 Litre
