Answer:

Use the Rydberg Equation 1/λ = R(1/n²(final) - 1/n²(initial) where R = 109,678 cm⁻¹. Substitute initial orbital number and final orbital number and solve for wavelength (λ).

Explanation:

Example:

Assume an electron transition from n = 5 to n = 2.

1/λ = 109,678cm⁻¹(1/2² - 1/5²) = 109,678(0.25 - 0.04)cm⁻¹ = 23,032cm⁻¹

λ = 1/23,032cm⁻¹ = 4.34 x 10⁻⁵cm x 10⁻²m/cm x 10⁹nm/m = 434nm

How many gallons of gasoline that is 5% ethanol must be added to 2,000 gallons of gasoline with no ethanol to get a mixture that

Amanda [17]

Answer:

$V_1= 3000 gal$

Explanation:

We have 3 solutions:

Solution 1 (with ethanol)
Solution 2 (no ethanol)
Final solution

$V_f=V_1 + V_2$

and for the ethanol:

$V_f*0.03=V_1*0.05 + V_2*0$

$V_f=V_1 \frac{5}{3}$

Combining:

$V_1 \frac{5}{3}=V_1 + V_2$

$V_1 \frac{2}{3}= V_2$

$V_1= \frac{3}{2} V_2$

If V2=2000 gal:

$V_1= \frac{3}{2} 2000 gal$

$V_1= 3000 gal$

In ionic bonding, during the transfer of electrons between two neutrally charged atoms, one electron moves from one atom to anot

forsale [732]

The given question is incomplete . The complete question is :

In ionic bonding, during the transfer of electrons between two neutrally charged atoms, one electron moves from one atom to another. What are the new relative charges between the two atoms?

a. The giving atom and receiving atom are both negatively charged

b. The giving atom is now positively charged and the receiving atom is now negatively charged.

c. The giving and receiving atom are both positively charged

d. The giving atom is now negatively charged and the receiving atom is now positively charged.

Answer: The giving atom is now positively charged and the receiving atom is now negatively charged.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are formed by transference of electrons between metals and non metals. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Thus when one electron moves from one atom to another, the metal acquires a positive charge and the non metal acquires negative charge.

For example: $NaCl$ is formed by transfer of one electron from sodium to chlorine , thus forming $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$

In the so called rain shadow effect we have interaction between all of the four major Earth spheres. When we have a coastal region where there's a high mountain range, the part of the mountain that is facing the sea will differ a lot from the part of the mountain that is on the other side. The water from the sea evaporates. The water vapor makes the air wet. The warm and wet air masses from the sea will come to the coastline, once they reach the mountain they will start to accumulate as they can not pass through it. As they accumulate rainfall appears. The rainfall contributes to a lush vegetation on this side of the mountain (windward side). The rain shadow effect appears on the leeward side of the mountain, and it mostly gets dry, strong, downward winds. These conditions result in drier climate, much less vegetation, and much increased erosion. Thus we can easily see that we have in this case interaction between the hydrosphere (the sea and the rainfall), the geosphere (the ground, soil, rocks), biosphere (the vegetation), and atmosphere (the winds, the clouds).

What mass of KNO, will dissolve in 100 g of water at 100°C?

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

About 170-180 grams of potassium nitrate are completely dissolved in 100 g.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the reported solubility data for potassium nitrate at different temperatures on the attached picture, it is possible to bear out that about 170-180 grams of potassium nitrate are completely dissolved in 100 g; considering that the solubility is the maximum amount of a solute that can be dissolved in a solvent, in this case water.

Best regards!
