Why do different elements emit different colors of light?

Chemistry

Answer:

Different elements emit differently colors of light because when electrons return to the lower energy levels, they emit energy in a different form of light

Explanation:

At 20 ?C the vapor pressure of benzene (C6H6)is 75 torr, and that of toluene (C7H8) is 22 torr
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

(a) Benzene = 0.26; toluene = 0.74

(b) Benzene = 0.55

Explanation:

1. Calculate the composition of the solution

For convenience, let’s call benzene Component 1 and toluene Component 2.

According to Raoult’s Law,  

p_{1} = \chi_{1}p_{1}^{\circ}\\p_{2} = \chi_{2}p_{2}^{\circ}

where

p₁ and p₂ are the vapour pressures of the components above the solution

χ₁ and χ₂ are the mole fractions of the components

p₁° and p₂° are the vapour pressures of the pure components.

Note that

χ₁ + χ₂ = 1

So,  

\begin{array}{rcl}p_{\text{tot}} &=& p_{1} + p_{2}\\p_{\text{tot}} & = & \chi_{1}p_{1}^{\circ}  + (1 - \chi_{1})p_{2}^{\circ}\\36 & = & \chi_{1}\times 75  + (1 - \chi_{1}) \times 22 \\36 & = & 75\chi_{1} + 22 -22\chi_{1}\\14 & = & 53\chi_{1}\\\chi_{1} & = & \mathbf{0.26}\\\end{array}

χ₁ = 0.26 and χ₂ = 0.74

2. Calculate the mole fraction of benzene in the vapour

In the liquid,  

p₁ = χ₁p₁° = 0.26 × 75 mm = 20 mm

∴ In the vapour

\chi_{1} = \dfrac{p_{1}}{p_{\text{tot}} } = \dfrac{\text{20 mm} }{\text{36 mm}}  = 0.55

Note that the vapour composition diagram below has toluene along the horizontal axis. The purple line is the vapour pressure curve for the vapour. Since χ₂ has dropped to 0.45, χ₁ has increased to 0.55.

A solution is made by adding 200 g table salt to 1
pochemuha

We say that the solution is unsaturated.

Explanation:

If the salt solubility is 36 g in 0.1 L of water then we can dissolve 360 g of salt in 1 L of water.

Because the solution contains 200 g of salt in 1 L of water, the solution is unsaturated because more salt can be added until we reach the saturation point.

We call the solution dilute when we compare the concentration of a solution with the concentration of another solution, but here we do not compare different solutions.

Elements with great electron affinities (large negative values) often have
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

3. small sizes and high ionization energies.

Explanation:

Hello,

Ionization energies are always related with the formation of positive ions. On the other hand, electron affinities are the negative ion equivalent, and their use is almost always confined to elements in groups 6 and 7 of the Periodic Table

Small sizes and high ionization energies turn out into great electron affinities since it is easier for an electron to be added to an atom if it is small and it has a high ionization energy to promote the aforesaid addition.

Best regards.
