The frequency of the radiation is equal to $7.17 \times 10^{19}$ Hertz.

Given the following data:

Photon energy = $4.75 \times 10^{-14}$ Joules

To find the frequency of this radiation, we would use the Planck-Einstein equation.

Mathematically, the Planck-Einstein relation is given by the formula:

$E = hf$

Where:

h is Planck constant.

f is photon frequency.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

$4.75 \times 10^{-14} = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times F\\\\F = \frac{4.75 \times 10^{-14}}{6.626 \times 10^{-34}}$

Frequency, F = $7.17 \times 10^{19}$ Hertz

What volume of 0.500 m h2so4 is needed to react completely with 20.0 ml of 0.400 m lioh?

ExtremeBDS [4]

The balanced chemical equation for the above reaction is as follows;
2LiOH + H₂SO₄ ---> Li₂SO₄ + 2H₂O
stoichiometry of base to acid is 2:1
Number of OH⁻ moles reacted = number of H⁺ moles reacted at neutralisation
Number of LiOH moles reacted = 0.400 M / 1000 mL/L x 20.0 mL = 0.008 mol
number of H₂SO₄ moles reacted - 0.008 mol /2 = 0.004 mol
Number of H₂SO₄ moles in 1 L - 0.500 M
This means that 0.500 mol in 1 L solution
Therefore 0.004 mol in - 1/0.500 x 0.004 = 0.008 L
therefore volume of acid required = 8 mL

If the energy of photon emitted from the hydrogen atom is 4.09 x 10-19 J, what is

Aliun [14]

Answer:

486 nm

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Energy (E) = 4.09×10¯¹⁹ J

Wavelength (λ) =?

Next, we shall determine the frequency of the photon. This can be obtained as follow:

Energy (E) = 4.09×10¯¹⁹ J

Planck's constant (h) = 6.63×10¯³⁴ Js

Frequency (f) =?

E = hf

4.09×10¯¹⁹ = 6.63×10¯³⁴ × f

Divide both side by 6.63×10¯³⁴

f = 4.09×10¯¹⁹ / 6.63×10¯³⁴

f = 6.17×10¹⁴ Hz

Next, we shall determine the wavelength of the photon. This can be obtained as follow:

Frequency (f) = 6.17×10¹⁴ Hz

Velocity of photon (v) = 3×10⁸ m/s

Wavelength (λ) =?

v = λf

3×10⁸ = λ × 6.17×10¹⁴

Divide both side by 6.17×10¹⁴

λ = 3×10⁸ / 6.17×10¹⁴

λ = 4.86×10¯⁷ m

Finally, we shall convert 4.86×10¯⁷ m to nm. This can be obtained as follow:

1 m = 1×10⁹ nm

Therefore,

4.86×10¯⁷ m = 4.86×10¯⁷ m × 1×10⁹ nm / 1 m

4.86×10¯⁷ m = 486 nm

Therefore, the wavelength of the photon is 486 nm

Rank the compounds in each set in order of increasing acid strength.

Viktor [21]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

For this question, we have to remember the effect of an atom with high electronegativity as "Br". If the "Br" atom is closer to the carboxylic acid group (COOH) we will have an inductive effect. Due to the electronegativity of Br, the electrons of the C-H bond would be to the Br, then this bond would be weaker and the compound will be more acid (because is easier to produce the hydronium ion $H^+$ ).

With this in mind, for A in the last compound, we have 2 Br atoms near to the acid carboxylic group, so, we will have a high inductive effect, then the C-H would be weaker and we will have more acidity. Then we will have the compound with only 1 Br atom and finally, the last compound would be the one without Br atoms.

In B, the difference between the molecules is the position of the "Br" atom in the molecule. If the Br atom is closer to the acid group we will have a higher inductive effect and more acidity.
