Answer:
Boiling of a substance
Explanation:
When something is boiled, heat is released to the surrounding, making it an exothermic reaction (a type of chemical reaction)
First we find for the wavelength of the photon released due
to change in energy level. We use the Rydberg equation:
1/ʎ = R [1/n1^2 – 1/n2^2]
where,
ʎ is the wavelength
R is the rydbergs constant = 1.097×10^7 m^-1
n1 is the 1st energy level = 1
n2 is the higher energy level = infinity, so 1/n2 = 0
Calculating for ʎ:
1/ʎ = 1.097×10^7 m^-1 * [1/1^2 – 0]
ʎ = 9.1158 x 10^-8 m
Then calculate the energy using Plancks equation:
E = hc/ʎ
where,
h is plancks constant = 6.626×10^−34 J s
c is speed of light = 3x10^8 m/s
E = (6.626×10^−34 J s * 3x10^8 m/s) / 9.1158 x 10^-8 m
E = 2.18 x 10^-18 J = 2.18 x 10^-21 kJ
This is still per atom, so multiply by Avogadros number =
6.022 x 10^23 atoms / mol:
E = (2.18 x 10^-21 kJ / atom) * (6.022 x 10^23 atoms /
mol)
E = 1312 kJ/mol
Explanation:
Atomic radius decreases from left to right in a period.
Therefore Calcium would have a smaller atomic size.
ENERGY WOULD BE RELALISED, MEANING BONDS ARE BEING BROKEN, SO IT IS AN EXOTHERMIC REACTION
Sand dunes would be created due to the mixture falling on each other
