How is it possible for helium to have 8 spectral lines when it only has 2 electrons?

It has more lines in it compared to hydrogen emission spectrum. It is mainly because the helium atom has more electrons than a hydrogen atom. Therefore, more electrons get excited when we pass a white light beam through a helium sample, and it causes the emission of more spectral lines

Answer:

Explanation:

1) a, b) A <em>solution</em><em> is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances</em>. The <em>solute</em><em> is the substance present in a smaller amount</em>, and the <em>solvent</em><em> is the substance present in a larger amount. </em>

c) <em>A </em><em>saturated solution</em><em> contains the maximum amount of a solute that will dissolve in a given solvent at a specific temperature. </em>

C6H12O6 + 6 O2 --&gt; 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + energy In the reaction listed above, 1 molecule of glucose reacts with 6 molecules of oxyg
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

  • Third choice:<em> energy present in the glucose and oxygen that is not needed for the formation of carbon dioxide and water is released to form energy/ATP.</em>

Explanation:

<u>1) Chemical equation (given):</u>

  • C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ --> 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O + energy

<u>2) Chemical potential energy:</u>

Each compound stores chemical potential energy.  This energy is stored in the chemical bonds.

Due to every substance has its own unique chemical potential energy, when a chemical reaction takes plase, yielding to the change of some substances, some energy is absorbed (when bonds are formed) and some energy is released (when bonds are broken).

<u>3) Conservation of energy:</u>

Then, if the sum of the bond energies of the final products is less than the sum of the bond energies of the reactants, the<em> law of conservation of energy</em> rules that the difference between the total energies of the products and reactants must be released to the surroundings.

That is what is happening in the given reaction:

  • C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ --> 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O + energy

The term energy in the product side means that energy is conserved because it is being released due to the the glucose and oxygen (reactant side) have more energy stored in their bonds than the energy needed for the formation of carbon dioxide and water, so that excess of energy is released to form energy/ATP.

<u>Summarizing:</u>

  • The energy on the product side added to the energy of carbon dioxide and water equals the energy of the glucose and oxygen and the final balance is:

  • ∑ Energy of the reactants = ∑energy of the products + released energy, supporting the law of conservation of energy.
