I think it's B. Molecules collide more frequently
The Lyman series can be expressed in the formula <span><span>1/λ</span>=<span>RH</span><span>(1−<span>1/<span>n2</span></span>) where </span><span><span>RH</span>=1.0968×<span>107</span><span>m<span>−1</span></span>=<span><span>13.6eV</span><span>hc
</span></span></span></span>Where n is a natural number greater than or equal to 2 (i.e. n = 2,3,4,...). Therefore, the lines seen in the image above are the wavelengths corresponding to n=2 on the right, to n=∞on the left (there are infinitely many spectral lines, but they become very dense as they approach to n=∞<span> (Lyman limit), so only some of the first lines and the last one appear).
The wavelengths (nm) in the Lyman series are all ultraviolet
:2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
Wavelength (nm) 121.6 102.6 97.3 95 93.8 93.1 92.6 92.3 92.1 91.9 91.18 (Lyman limit)
In your case for the n=5 line you have to replace "n" in the above formula for 5 and you should get a value of 95 x 10^-9 m for the wavelength. then you have to use the other equation that convert wavelength to frequency. </span>
E. co and n2Effusion is the process where gas escapes through a hole. Gases with a lower molecular mass effuse more speedy than gases with a higher molecular mass. R<span>elative rates of effusion is related to the molecular mass.
a) M(N</span>₂)/M(O₂) = 28/32 = 0,875
b) M(N₂O)/M(NO₂) = 44/46 = 0,956
c) M(CO)/M(CO₂) = 28/44 = 0,636
d) M(NO₂)/M(N₂O₂) = 44/58= 0,758
e) M(CO)/M(N₂) = 28/28 = 1, <span>CO and N</span>₂ <span>have iexact molecular masses and will effuse at nearly identical rates.</span>
