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

Chemistry

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

In the winter, a heated home in the Northeast might be maintained at a temperature of 78°F. What is this temperature on the Cels
masya89 [10]

Answer:  25.6^0C,  298.6K

Explanation:

Temperature of the gas is defined as the degree of hotness or coldness of a body. It is expressed in units like ^0C and K  

These units of temperature are inter convertible.

We are given:

Temperature of the gas = 78^0F

Converting this unit of temperature into ^0C by using conversion factor:

^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)

^0C=\frac{5}{9}\times (78^oF-32)

25.6^0C

Converting this unit of temperature into K by using conversion factor:

K=t^0C+273

K=25.6+273

298.6K

Thus the temperature on the Celsius and Kelvin scales are 25.6^0C  and 298.6K respectively.
