A beta particle has

Chemistry
1 answer:
JulsSmile [24]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

Beta particles have a mass which is half of one thousandth of the mass of a proton and carry either a single negative (electron) or positive (positron) charge. As they have a small mass and can be released with high energy, they can reach relativistic speeds (close to the speed of light).

How can understanding atomic light help astronomers determine what planets are composed of?
GuDViN [60]

The most common method astronomers use to determine the composition of stars, planets, and other objects is spectroscopy. This process utilizes instruments with a grating that spreads out the light from an object by wavelength. This spread-out light is called a spectrum. Every element has a unique fingerprint that allows researchers to determine what it is made of.

The fingerprint often appears as the absorption of light. Every atom has electrons, and these electrons like to stay in their lowest-energy levels. But when photons carrying energy hit an electron, they can push it to higher energy levels. This is absorption, and each element’s electrons absorb light at specific wavelengths related to the difference between energy levels in that atom. But the electrons want to return to their original levels, so they don’t hold onto the energy for long. When they emit the energy, they release photons with exactly the same wavelengths of light that were absorbed in the first place. An electron can release this light in any direction, so most of the light is emitted in directions away from our line of sight. Therefore, a dark line appears in the spectrum at that particular wavelength.  

Because the wavelengths at which absorption lines occur are unique for each element, astronomers can measure the position of the lines to determine which elements are present in a target. The amount of light that is absorbed can also provide information about how much of each element is present.

23.5 L of h2 is stored at a pressure of 58.7 Kpa what volume would the gas take up at stp
stepan [7]

Answer:-  13.6 L

Solution:- Volume of hydrogen gas at 58.7 Kpa is given as 23.5 L. It asks to calculate the volume of hydrogen gas at STP that is standard temperature and pressure. Since the problem does not talk about the original temperature so we would assume the constant temperature. So, it is Boyle's law.

Standard pressure is 1 atm that is 101.325 Kpa.

Boyle's law equation is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

From given information:-

P_1 = 58.7 Kpa

V_1 = 23.5 L

P_2 = 101.325 Kpa

V_2 = ?

Let's plug in the values and solve it for final volume.

58.7Kpa*23.5L=101.325Kpa*V_2

On rearranging the equation for V_2

V_2=\frac{58.7Kpa*23.5L}{101.325Kpa}

V_2 = 13.6 L

So, the volume of hydrogen gas at STP for the given information is 13.6 L.
