Sodium’s combination with water creates a colourless result of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas (H2). ... The reaction is exothermic. During the reaction, the sodium metal become very hot, to the point where it can catch fire and burns with a characteristic orange colour.
Answer:
1.10 × 10⁻¹² m
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Chemistry - Atomic Structure</u>
Speed of Light = Wavelength times Frequency
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
ν = 2.73 × 10²⁰ Hz
<u>Step 2: Find wavelength</u>
3.0 × 10⁸ m/s = λ(2.73 × 10²⁰ Hz)
λ = 1.0989 × 10⁻¹² m
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules.</em>
1.0989 × 10⁻¹² m ≈ 1.10 × 10⁻¹² m
