First we find for the wavelength of the photon released due to change in energy level. We use the Rydberg equation:

1/ʎ = R [1/n1^2 – 1/n2^2]

where,

ʎ is the wavelength

R is the rydbergs constant = 1.097×10^7 m^-1

n1 is the 1st energy level = 1

n2 is the higher energy level = infinity, so 1/n2 = 0

 

Calculating for ʎ:

1/ʎ = 1.097×10^7 m^-1 * [1/1^2 – 0]

ʎ = 9.1158 x 10^-8 m

 

Then calculate the energy using Plancks equation:

E = hc/ʎ

where,

h is plancks constant = 6.626×10^−34 J s

c is speed of light = 3x10^8 m/s

 

E = (6.626×10^−34 J s * 3x10^8 m/s) / 9.1158 x 10^-8 m

E = 2.18 x 10^-18 J = 2.18 x 10^-21 kJ

 

This is still per atom, so multiply by Avogadros number = 6.022 x 10^23 atoms / mol:

E = (2.18 x 10^-21 kJ / atom) * (6.022 x 10^23 atoms / mol)

E = 1312 kJ/mol

Hiii pls help me to write out the ionic equation ​
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

<u>STEP I</u>

This is the balanced equation for the given reaction:-

2KOH_{(aq)} + H_2SO_4{}_{(aq)}   \rightarrow K_2SO_4{}_{(aq)} + 2H_2O_{(l)}

<u>STEP II</u>

The compounds marked with (aq) are soluble ionic compounds. They must be

broken into their respective ions.

see, in the equation KOH, H2SO4, and K2SO4 are marked with (aq).

On breaking them into their respective ions :-

  • 2KOH -> 2K+ + 2OH-
  • H2SO4 -> 2H+ + (SO4)2-
  • K2SO4 -> 2K+ + (SO4)2-

<u>STEP III</u>

Rewriting these in the form of equation

\underline{\pmb{2K^+} }+ 2OH^- + 2H^+ + \pmb{\underline{{SO_4{}^{2-}}} \: \rightarrow \:  \underline{\pmb{2K^+}}} + \underline{\pmb{SO_4{}^{2-}}} + 2H_2O

<u>STEP </u><u>IV</u>

Canceling spectator ions, the ions that appear the same on either side of the equation

<em>(note: in the above step the ions in bold have gotten canceled.)</em>

\boxed{ \mathfrak{ \red{ 2OH^-{}_{(aq)} + 2H^+{(aq.)} \rightarrow H_2O{}_{(l)}}}}

This is the net ionic equation.

____________________________

\\

\mathfrak{\underline{\green{ Why\: KOH \:has\:  been\: taken\: as\: aqueous ?}}}

  • KOH has been taken as aqueous because the question informs us that we have a solution of KOH. by solution it means that KOH has been dissolved in water before use.

[Alkali metal hydroxides are the only halides soluble in water ]

Draw the product(s) that are expected when tert-butyl bromide undergoes solvolysis in isopropanol, (CH3)2CHOH.
N76 [4]
Those reactions in which Alkyl Halide reacts with the solvent without the involvement of any acid or base is called as Solvolysis. In given problem <em>tert</em>-Butyl Bromide is a tertiary Alkyl Halide and we know well that tertiary alkyl halides undergo SN¹ and E¹ elimination reaction due to the formation of stable tertiary carbocation. In given example after the formation of carbocation when Isopropyl act as nucleophile it will produce ether and when it acts as a base it will produce unsaturated compound. The reaction along with both products is shown below,
