Answer:

For the first oxide, 1 g gives 0.888 g of copper.

Dividing by 0.888 tells us that 1.126 g gives 1 g of copper so has 0.126 g of oxygen.

For the second oxide, 1 g gives 0.798 g of copper.

Dividing by 0.798 tells us that 1.253 g gives 1 g of copper so has 0.253 g of oxygen.

So 1 g of copper combines with either 0.126 g or 0.253 g of oxygen.

Within the limits of experimental error, 0.253 is twice 0.126, confirming the law of multiple proportion.

Answer: let the two oxides of Cu be named A and B

oxide A

mass of Cu in 1g of oxide A = 0.888g

mass of O in 1g of oxide A =1-0.888=0.112g

oxide B

mass of Cu in 1g of   oxide B = 0.799g

mass of O in g of oxide B = 1-0.799=0.201g

In oxide A , 1g Cu is combined with oxygen = 0.112 x 1/0.888 = 0.126g

In oxide B , 1g Cu is combined with oxygen = 0.201 x 1/0.799 = 0.252g

the different weight of oxygen combined with a fixed weight (1g) of Cu are in ratio 0.126 : 0.252  or 1: 2

If the wavelength of purple light is 400 x 10^-9 m, what is the frequency?
FromTheMoon [43]

The frequency : a) 7.5 x 10¹⁴ /s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Radiation energy is absorbed by photons

The energy in one photon can be formulated as

\large{\boxed{\bold{E\:=\:h\:.\:f}}}

Where

h = Planck's constant (6,626.10⁻³⁴ Js)

f = Frequency of electromagnetic waves  (/s or Hz)

f = c / λ

c = speed of light

= 3.10⁸  m/s

λ = wavelength

The wavelength(λ) of purple light is 400 x 10⁻⁹ m, so the frequency :

\tt f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{3.10^8~m/s}{4.10^{-7}m}\\\\f=\boxed{\bold{7.5.10^{14}}/s}
