At what temperature is the average speed of air particles the highest?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Law Incorporation [45]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Air is a mixture of roughly 80% nitrogen and 20% oxygen. The diatomic molecules of each type have a Maxwell-Boltzman distribution of velocities.

From the kinetic theory of gases the molecules kinetic energy will depend on the temperature.

Let’s use 300 K as room temperature : The nitrogen molecules have a root mean square velocity ( VRMS ) of 353 m/s. The average for all of the molecules is 347 m/s.

In general in gases of diatomic molecules the speed of sound is 68% of the molecular  VRMS .

Cite two important quantum-mechanical concepts associated with the Bohr model of the atom.(b) Cite two important additional refi
Alenkinab [10]

Answer: Bohr postulated that electronic energy levels are quantized. Secondly, a photon of light of a particular frequency is emitted when electrons move from a higher to a lower energy levels.

Explanation:

The Bohr model of the atom is the immediate predecessor of the wave mechanical model of the atom. The wave mechanical model refined the Bohr's model by treating the electron as a wave having a wave function psi. The wave function describes the identity of the electron. From Heisenberg uncertainty principle, the position of a particle cannot be accurately and precisely measured. Hence the wave mechanical model added that electrons are not localized in orbits according to Bohr's model but the integral of psi squared dx gives the probability of finding the electron within a given space.

A) Atom is generally charge less,<br>why? ​
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Every atom has no overall charge (neutral). This is because they contain equal numbers of positive protons and negative electrons. These opposite charges cancel each other out making the atom neutral.
