Answer:

$1.936\times 10^{-18}\ \text{J}$

Explanation:

$R_h$ = Rydberg constant = $2.178\times 10^{-18}\ \text{J}$

$n_i$ = Initial shell = 3

$n_f$ = Final shell = 1

We have the relation

$\Delta E=R_h(\dfrac{1}{n_f^2}-\dfrac{1}{n_i^2})\\\Rightarrow \Delta E=2.178\times 10^{-18}(\dfrac{1}{1^2}-\dfrac{1}{3^2})\\\Rightarrow \Delta E=1.936\times 10^{-18}\ \text{J}$

The energy of the photon emitted here is $1.936\times 10^{-18}\ \text{J}$ .

Substance X has a fixed volume, and the attraction between its particles is strong. Substance Y has widely spread out particles

enot [183]

Among the choices given, the correct answer is the first option. Substance X most likely is a crystal, and substance Y most likely is a liquid. Substance X having a fixed volume describes a crystal because crystals occupy a certain volume. Substance Y is a liquid because liquids can still be compressed further in order to attain a more packed structure.

Calculate the standard enthalpy change for the reaction at 25 ∘ 25 ∘ C. Standard enthalpy of formation values can be found in th

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: The standard enthalpy change of the reaction is coming out to be -16.3 kJ

Explanation:

Enthalpy change is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. It is represented as $\Delta H$

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(reactant)]$

For the given chemical reaction:

$Mg(OH)_2(s)+2HCl(g)\rightarrow MgCl_2(s)+2H_2O(g)$

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=[(1\times \Delta H_f_{(MgCl_2(s))})+(2\times \Delta H_f_{(H_2O(g))})]-[(1\times \Delta H_f_{(Mg(OH)_2(s))})+(2\times \Delta H_f_{(HCl(g))})]$

We are given:

$\Delta H_f_{(Mg(OH)_2(s))}=-924.5kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(HCl(g))}=-92.30kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(MgCl_2(s))}=-641.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(H_2O(g))}=-241.8kJ/mol$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=[(1\times (-641.8))+(2\times (-241.8))]-[(1\times (-924.5))+(2\times (-92.30))]\\\\\Delta H_{rxn}=-16.3kJ$

Hence, the standard enthalpy change of the reaction is coming out to be -16.3 kJ

How many degrees of unsaturation are lost or gained in the base-induced transformation from mito-ph to its photoactive ring-open

Fudgin [204]

Unsaturation (IHD) 2 hydrogen Needed

IHD = [(2n+2) -H]/2
(H: X=1, N=-1, O= zero)

Unsaturation:
Double bonds = 1
Rings = 1
Triple Bonds = 2

The degrees of unsaturation in a molecule are additive — a molecule with one double bond has one degree of unsaturation, a molecule with two double bonds has two degrees of unsaturation, and so forth.

Assume that 1.0 mol of C4H10 is completely burned in excess oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water. How many moles of CO2 would

In-s [12.5K]

You need to first write a chemical equation and balance it
C₄H₁₀ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O
2 C₄H₁₀ + 13 O₂ → 8 CO₂ + 10 H₂O
1.0 moles X moles
1.0 mol C₄H₁₀ ( $\frac{8 mol CO₂}{2 mol C₄H₁₀}$ ) = 4 moles of CO₂
