A watt is a unit of power or energy per unit time (1 W = 1 J/s). A semiconductor laser in a CD player has an output wavelength o

f 780 nm and a power level of 0.120 mW. How many photons strike the CD surface during the playing of a CD 78 minutes in length?

Answer:

n = 2.208x10¹⁸ photons

Explanation:

The energy of a photon( an elementary particle) is given by the equation:

E = nxhxf

Where n is the number of photons, h is plank constant (6,62x10⁻³⁴ J.s), and f is the frequency. Knowing that the power level is 0.120mW (1.2x10⁻⁴ W), the energy in J, for a time of 78 min (4680 s)

E = 1.2x10⁻⁴x4680 = 0.5616 J

The frequency of a photon is its velocity ( c= 3x10⁸ m/s) divided by its wavelength, which is 780 nm = 780x10⁻⁹ m

f = 3x10⁸/780x10⁻⁹

f = 3.846x10¹⁴ s⁻¹

Then, the number of photons is:

0.5616 = nx6,62x10⁻³⁴x3.846x10¹⁴

n = 2.208x10¹⁸ photons.

PLEASE HELP!!!!! Noble gases are often described as being very stable. Give two points to explain what this means.
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Noble Gases are very stable because...

1) Noble Gases have a full octet

2) Low chemical reactivity

Explanation:

This means that is has 8 valence electrons so it won't need any more, so it is less likely to react with other substances.
