A ground state hydrogen atom absorbs a photon of light having a wavelength of 92.57 nm. It then gives off a photon having a wavelength of 954.3 nm. What is the final state of the hydrogen atom? Values for physical constants can be found in g
Answer:
the final state of the hydrogen atom = 3
Explanation:
From the given information;
Let first calculate the amount of energy by the ground state atom during the atoms absorbs photon light by using the formula:
[tex]E_{absorbs} = \dfrac{hc}{\lambda}[/tex]
where;
h = planck's constant = [tex]6.626*10^{-34 }\ \ Js[/tex]
c = speed of light = [tex]3.0*10^8 \ \ m/s[/tex]
λ = wavelength = 92.57 nm = 92.57 × 10⁻⁹ m
[tex]E_{absorbs} = \dfrac{6.626*10^{-34 }\ \ Js * 3.0*10^8 \ \ m/s}{92.57*10^{-9} \ \ m}[/tex]
[tex]E_{absorbs} = 2.15 *10^{-18} \ J[/tex]
The energy emitted by the hydrogen atom is calculated by using the same formula from above ; but here , the wavelength λ = 954.3 nm = 954.3 × 10⁻⁹ m
[tex]E_{absorbs} = \dfrac{6.626*10^{-34 }\ \ Js * 3.0*10^8 \ \ m/s}{954.3*10^{-9} \ \ m}[/tex]
[tex]E_{absorbs} = 2.08 *10^{-19} \ J[/tex]
The change in the energy absorbed is:
[tex]\Delta E= 2.15 *10^{-18} \ J - 2.08 *10^{-19} \ J[/tex]
[tex]\Delta E= 1.94 *10^{-18} \ J[/tex]
The final state of the atom can be determined by using the relation:
[tex]\Delta E = R_H [\dfrac{1}{1^2}-\dfrac{1}{n^2_f}][/tex]
where;
[tex]R_H[/tex] = Rydberg constant = 2.18 × 10⁻¹⁸ J
[tex]\dfrac{\Delta E}{R_H} = [\dfrac{1}{1^2}-\dfrac{1}{n^2_f}] \\ \\ \\ \dfrac{1.94*10^{-18} \ J}{2.18*10^{-18} \ J } = [\dfrac{1}{1^2}-\dfrac{1}{n^2_f}] \\ \\ \\ 0.889 = [\dfrac{1}{1^2}-\dfrac{1}{n^2_f}] \\ \\ \\ 1 - 0.889 = \dfrac{1}{n^2_f} \\ \\ \\ 0.111= \dfrac{1}{n^2_f} \\ \\ \\ {n^2_f} = \dfrac{1}{0.111} \\ \\ \\ {n^2_f} = 9 \\ \\ \\ {n_f} = \sqrt{9} \\ \\ \\ \mathbf{n_f = 3}[/tex]
Thus; the final state of the hydrogen atom = 3
[tex]E_a_b_s_o_r_b_e_d = (6.626 * 10^-^3^4 J.s) * (3.00 * 10^8 m/s) / (92.57 *10^-^9 m)[/tex]We can use the fact that the energy of the photon is given by the equation: to determine the final position of the hydrogen atom.
E = hc / λ
Where:
E is the energy of the photon,
h is Planck's constant [tex](6.626 * 10^-^3^4 J.s)[/tex],
c is the speed of light in a vacuum [tex](3.00 * 10^8 m/s)[/tex], and
λ is the wavelength of the photon.
Let's first determine the energy of the absorbed photon:
[tex]E_a_b_s_o_r_b_e_d = hc /[/tex]λ[tex]_a_b_s_o_r_b_e_d[/tex]
[tex]E_a_b_s_o_r_b_e_d = (6.626 * 10^-^3^4 J.s) * (3.00 * 10^8 m/s) / (92.57 *10^-^9 m)[/tex]
The energy of the photon released will then be determined by:
[tex]E_e_m_i_t_t_e_d = hc[/tex] / λ[tex]_e_m_i_t_t_e_d[/tex]
E[tex]_e_m_i_t_t_e_d[/tex] = [tex](6.626 * 10^-^3^4 J.s) * (3.00 * 10^8 m/s) / (945.3 *10^-^9 m)[/tex]
The energy difference between the absorbed and released photons must now be determined:
ΔE = [tex]E_e_m_i_t_t_e_d - E_a_b_s_o_r_b_e_d[/tex]
The energy levels of hydrogen are given by the equation:
ΔE = -13.6 eV *[tex](1 / n^2_f_i_n_a_l - 1 / n^2_i_n_i_t_i_a_l)[/tex]
Where
[tex]n_f_i_n_a_l[/tex] and [tex]n_i_n_i_t_i_a_l[/tex] are the principal quantum numbers of the final and initial states, respectively, and -13.6 eV is the ionization energy of hydrogen.

Copper metal of 1.23 g sample is reacted completely with chlorine gas to produce
2.61 g of copper chloride. Determine the empirical formula of the compound?
Answer: The empirical formula of the compound is [tex]CuCl_2[/tex]
Explanation:
Mass of Copper (Cu) = 1.23 g
Mass of Chlorine (Cl) = Mass of copper chloride - mass of copper = (2.61 - 1.23) g = 1.38 g
Step 1 : convert given masses into moles
Moles of Cu =[tex]\frac{\text{ given mass of Cu}}{\text{ molar mass of Cu}}= \frac{1.23g}{63.5g/mole}=0.019moles[/tex]
Moles of Cl =[tex]\frac{\text{ given mass of Cl}}{\text{ molar mass of Cl}}= \frac{1.38g}{35.5g/mole}=0.038moles[/tex]
Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.
For Cu =[tex]\frac{0.019}{0.019}=1[/tex]
For Cl = [tex]\frac{0.038}{0.019}=2[/tex]
The ratio of Cu : Cl = 1 : 2

In the reaction of silver nitrate and sodium chloride to produce solid silver chloride, sodium ions and nitrate ions are ________. spectator ions gases solvents liquids molecules
Answer: spectator ions
Explanation:
A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place. The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas.
Spectator ions are defined as the ions which does not get involved in a chemical equation or they are ions which are found on both the sides of the chemical reaction present in ionic form.
The total ionic chemical equation is:
[tex]Ag^+(aq)+NO_3^-(aq)+Na^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow AgCl+Na^+(aq)+NO_3^-(aq)[/tex]
The ions which are present on both the sides of the equation are sodium and nitrate ions which are called as spectator ions and hence are not involved in net ionic equation.

1.What volume of 0.871 M oxalic acid contains 86.9 g of oxalic acid (H2C2O4)?
Answer:
1.11 L
Explanation:
Given data
Molarity of the oxalic acid solution (M): 0.871 MMass of oxalic acid (m): 86.9 gStep 1: Calculate the moles corresponding to 86.9 g of oxalic acid
The molar mass of oxalic acid is 90.03 g/mol.
[tex]86.9g \times \frac{1mol}{90.03g} = 0.965 mol[/tex]
Step 2: Calculate the volume of a 0.871 M solution that contains 0.965 moles of oxalic acid
The molarity is equal to the moles of solute (n) divided by the volume of the solution (V).
[tex]M = \frac{n}{V} \\V = \frac{n}{M} = \frac{0.965mol}{0.871 mol/L} =1.11 L[/tex]
A 10.17-g sample of solid sodium bicarbonate (the active ingredient in baking soda) completely decomposes into solid sodium hydroxide and carbon dioxide gas when heated. After the sodium hydroxide cools, it has a mass of 4.84 g. According to the law of conservation of mass, what mass of carbon dioxide must have been formed?
Answer:
5.33 g
Explanation:
Let's consider the balanced reaction for the complete decomposition of solid sodium bicarbonate to form solid sodium hydroxide and carbon dioxide gas when heated.
NaHCO₃(s) → NaOH(s) + CO₂(g)
According to Lavoisier's law of conservation of mass, the sum of the masses of the reactants is equal to the sum of the masses of the products. Then,
m(NaHCO₃) = m(NaOH) + m(CO₂)
m(CO₂) = m(NaHCO₃) - m(NaOH)
m(CO₂) = 10.17 g - 4.84 g
m(CO₂) = 5.33 g

A 5.000 g of Compound X with molecular formula C3H4 are burned in a constant-pressure calorimeter containing 15.00 kg of water at 25 °C. The temperature of the water is observed to rise by 3.688 °C. (You may assume all the heat released by the reaction is absorbed by the water, and none by the calorimeter itself.) Calculate the standard heat of formation of Compound X at 25 °C. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.
Answer:
THE STANDARD HEAT OF FORMATION FOR C3H8 IS 9.59 KJ/MOL.
Explanation:
Mass = 5 g of C3H4
Mass of water = 15 kg
Initial temperature of water = 25 C = 25 + 273 K = 298 K
Final temperature of water = 3.688 C = 3.688 + 273 K = 276.688 K
We may make the assumptions that:
1. the specific heat of water = 4.2 J/Kg K
2. total mass of the reaction mixture = 15 kg of water + 5 g of C3H8
= 15.005 Kg
Temperature change = 298 - 276.688 = 21.312 K
heat change for the reaction
Heat = mass * specific heat * change in temperture
Heat = 15.005 * 4.2 * 21.312
Heat = 1343.10 J
EQUATION
C3H8 + 5O2 -> 3CO2 + 4H2O + heat
Number of mole = mass / molar mass
Molar mass of HCl = 36.5 g/mol
Number of mole = 5 g/ 36.5 g/mol
Number of mole = 0.14 moles
5 g of C3H8 produces 1343.10 J of heat
0.14 mole of C3H8 produces 1343.10 J
1 mole of C3H8 will produce 1343.10 / 0.14 J of heat
= 9593.57 J
= 9.59 kJ of heat.
The standard heat of formation for C3H8 is 9.59 kJ/mol.

Calculate the theoretical yield in moles of magnesium chloride when 37 grams of Mg(s) react with 38 grams of HCl(aq).Write the answer using 2 decimal places and do not use scientific notation.
Answer:
The correct answer is 0.52 moles.
Explanation:
Based on the given question, 37 grams of magnesium reacts with 38 grams of HCl to produce MgCl2 or magnesium chloride. The reaction is:
Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) ⇒ MgCl2 (aq) + H2 (g)
There is a need to find the theoretical yield in moles of MgCl2. The formula for calculating the no. or moles is mass/molar mass. Therefore, moles of magnesium is 37/24 = 1.54 and moles of HCl will be 38/36.5 = 1.04.
From the reaction it is clear that one mole of magnesium reacts with two moles of HCl, as lesser quantity of HCl is present in the given case, therefore, HCl will be the limiting reagent.
Now theoretical moles of magnesium chloride will be,
= moles of HCl / 2
= 1.04 / 2
= 0.52 moles

Isomers of hydrocarbons have the same _______formula but different ____formula.
Answer:
Isomers of hydrocarbons have the molecular formula but structural formula.
Explanation:
Molecules with the same structural formula, but different molecular geometries (spatial arrangement) are called isomers. These differences in the arrangement of the various atoms confer certain differences in chemical properties to the resulting hydrocarbons, even though their chemical composition is the same. There are two types of isomers:
Structural isomers: Here, each atom are connected or bonded in different ways, hence structural isomers may contain different functional groups or pattern of bonding. structural isomers are further divided into: chain, position, and functional group isomers.
Stereoisomers: Here, the connections of the atoms are the same, but the difference is in their orientation in space

1 only
1 and 2
1 and 3
1, 2 and 3
Answer:

Explanation:
A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons , is known as covalent bonding.
A covalent bond involves as stated above, the mutual sharing of one or more electron pairs of between two atoms. These electrons are simultaneously attracted by the two atomic nuclei. A covalent bond forms when the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is too small for an electron transfer to occur to form ions. Shared electrons located in the space between the two nuclei are called bonding electrons. The bonded pair is the binding factor that holds the two atomic nuclei together in molecular units.
A covalent bond is commonly formed between two nonmetals. As we can see in the question; 1, 2 and 3 represents bonds formed between two nonmetallic elements. Hence they are rightly classified as molecular or covalent bonds.
Potatoes can be peeled commercially by soaking them in a 3M to 6M solution of sodium hydroxide, then removing the skins by spraying them with water. If titration of 12.00 mL of the sodium hydroxide requires 30.6 mL of 1.65 M HCl solution, what is the concentration of NaOH used in potato peeling?
Answer:
4.21 M
Explanation:
Step 1: Write the balanced equation
NaOH + HCl ⇒ NaCl + H₂O
Step 2: Calculate the reacting moles of HCl
30.6 mL of 1.65 M HCl reacted. The reacting moles of HCl are:
[tex]0.0306 L \times \frac{1.65mol}{L} = 0.0505 mol[/tex]
Step 3: Calculate the reacting moles of NaOH
The molar ratio of NaOH to HCl is 1:1. The reacting moles of NaOH are 1/1 × 0.0505 mol = 0.0505 mol.
Step 4: Calculate the molar concentration of NaOH
0.0505 moles of NaOH are in 12.00 mL. The molar concentration of NaOH is:
[tex]M = \frac{0.0505 mol}{0.01200L} = 4.21 M[/tex]
An analytical chemist is titrating 60.5mL of a 0.8700M solution of benzoic acid HC6H5CO2 with a 0.3600M solution of KOH . The pKa of benzoic acid is 4.20 . Calculate the pH of the acid solution after the chemist has added 172.mL of the KOH solution to it. Note for advanced students: you may assume the final volume equals the initial volume of the solution plus the volume of KOH solution added. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
Answer:
The correct answer is 12.6.
Explanation:
The formation of benzoate takes place when potassium hydroxide reacts with benzoic acid, due to the presence of a weak acid and its conjugated base the solution will act as a buffer. In the given question, the molarity of benzoic acid given is 0.8700 M and its volume is 60.5 ml. Therefore, the moles of benzoic acid will be,
Moles = molarity * volume of solution
= 0.8700 M * 60.5 ml = 52.365 m mol or 0.052365 moles
On the other hand, the molarity of KOH given is 0.3600 M and the volume given is 172 ml. Therefore, the moles of KOH added will be,
Moles = 0.3600 * 172 = 61.92 m moles or 0.06192 moles
Out of this 61.92 m mol, only 52.365 m mol of KOH will react with the benzoic acid. The moles of KOH, which remain unreactive is,
61.92 m moles - 52.365 m moles = 9.285 m moles or 0.009285 moles
The formula for calculating molarity is number of moles / volume of solution in liters
The total volume of the solution is 172 ml + 60.5 ml = 232.5 ml or 0.2325 L
The molarity of KOH will be,
Molarity = 0.009285 moles / 0.2325 L = 0.0395 M
The dissociation of KOH takes place completely to produce hydroxide ion.
pOH = -log[0.0395] = 1.4
pH + pOH = 14
pH = 14 - 1.4 = 12.6
A mixture of krypton and argon gases, at a total pressure of 733 mm Hg, contains 3.97 grams of krypton and 6.34 grams of argon. What is the partial pressure of each gas in the mixture?
Answer:
Partial pressure of krypton= 167.12 mmHg
Partial pressure of argon = 565.88 mmHg
Explanation:
The partial pressure of a gas in a mixture of gasses is equal to the total pressure multiplied (Pt) by the mole fraction of the gas (X):
P= X Pt
The total pressure is Pt= 733 mmHg
The mole fraction is given by the following:
X = number of moles of gas/ total number of moles
For krypton (Kr) , the molecular weight is 83.8 g/mol and we calculate the number of moles by dividing the mass into the molecular weight as follows:
moles of Kr = 3.97 g/(83.8 g/mol)= 0.047 moles
For argon (Ar), the molesular weight is 39.9 g/mol, so we calculate the number of moles as follows:
moles of Ar = 6.34 g/(39.9 g/mol)= 0.159
Now, we calculate the total number of moles (nt):
nt= moles of Kr + moles of Ar = 0.047 moles + 0.159 moles = 0.206 moles
The mole fraction of each gas is now calculated:
X(Kr)= moles of Kr/nt = 0.047 moles/0.206 = 0.228
X(Ar)= moles of Ar/nt = 0.159 moles/0.206 = 0.772
Finally, with the mole fractions and the total pressure we calculate the partial pressure of each gas as follows:
P(Kr) = X(Kr) x Pt = 0.228 x 733 mmHg= 167.12 mmHg
P(Ar) = X(Ar) x Pt = 0.772 x 733 mmHg= 565.88 mmHg
