Answer:

700 calories

Explanation:

Using the formula below:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat required (calories)

m = mass of substance (g)

c = specific heat of substance (cal/g°C)

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

According to this question, the following information was provided;

Q = ?

m = 20g

c = 1.0 cal/g °C

∆T = 40°C - 5°C = 35°C

Using the formula; Q = m × c × ∆T

Q = 20 × 1 × 35

Q = 700 calories

Hence, 700 cal of heat energy is needed to raise 20 g of H2O from 5°C to 40°C.

. A bright violet line occurs at 435.8 nm in the emission spectrum of mercury vapor. What amount of energy, in joules, must be r

Tom [10]

Answer : The energy released by an electron in a mercury atom to produce a photon of this light must be, $4.56\times 10^{-19}J$

Explanation : Given,

Wavelength = $435.8nm=435.8\times 10^{-9}m$

conversion used : $1nm=10^{-9}m$

Formula used :

$E=h\times \nu$

As, $\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}$

So, $E=h\times \frac{c}{\lambda}$

where,

$\nu$ = frequency

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}Js$

$\lambda$ = wavelength = $435.8\times 10^{-9}m$

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

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$E=(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times \frac{(3\times 10^{8}m/s)}{(435.8\times 10^{-9}m)}$

$E=4.56\times 10^{-19}J$

Therefore, the energy released by an electron in a mercury atom to produce a photon of this light must be, $4.56\times 10^{-19}J$

The equilibrium constant for the gas phase reaction

stellarik [79]

The equilibrium constant is found by [product]/[reactant]

If the equilibrium constant is very small, such as 4.20 * 10^-31, then that means at equilibrium there is very little product and a lot of reactant.
And likewise, if there is a lot of product formed, and very little reactant, then the K value will be very large, which tells us that it is predominantly product.

At equilibrium, for any reaction, there will always be some reactant and some product present. There cannot be zero reactant or zero product. Also keep in mind that the equilibrium constant is dependent on temperature.

At equilibrium, for your reaction, it is predominantly reactants.

The first-order rate constant for the decomposition of n2o5, 2n2o5(g)→4no2(g)+o2(g) at 70∘c is 6.82×10−3 s−1. suppose we start w

torisob [31]

The rate constant for 1st order reaction is

K = (2.303 /t) log (A0 /A)

Where, k is rate constant

t is time in sec

A0 is initial concentration

(6.82 * 10-3) * 240 = log (0.02 /A)

1.63 = log (0.02 /A)

-1.69 – log A = 1.63

Log A = - 0.069

A = 0.82

Hence, 0.82 mol of A remain after 4 minutes.
