Answer:
365nm and Exothermic reaction
Explanation:
b) The Einstein Planck's equation states that
E = hf where E is the energy of a photon
h is the Planck's constant
f is the frequency
But Frequency f = c/λ where c is the speed of light
λ is the wavelength
Therefore Energy E = hc/λ
From the above equation we see that the Energy of a photon is indirectly proportional to its wavelength
Hence as the wavelength increases from 365nm to 435nm, the energy of the photons decreases
Therefore, a photon will wavelength 365nm would have a higher energy than one will wavelength of 435nm.
c) From the diagram we observe the following:
At high temperatures, HPR⁺ occurs at a higher concentration than at low temperatures.
At low temperatures, more of PR⁻ is formed than at high temperatures
The equation of the reaction is
HPR⁺ (aq) ⁺ ⇆ H⁺ + PR⁻(aq)
Le Chartelier's principle states that when an external constraint such as a change in concentration, pressure or temperature is placed on a system in equilibrium, the system acts in such a way as to oppose the change.
Hence a decrease in temperature on the side of reactant, HPR would force the equilibrium to the side of the products, PR in other to accommodate the change
The forward reaction, which produces more of the product PR⁻ is exothermic because the at low temperatures, the the forward reaction is favoured and equilibrium shifts to the right.
