The answer is C. The specific amount of energy emitted when electrons jump from excited states to the ground state refers to emission spectrum. The energy is emitted in the form of photons, and the photons have very specific wavelengths (energy) that correspond to the energy gaps between the excited states and the ground state. The specific wavelengths of light emitted are referred to as the "emission spectrum," and each element produces a different emission spectrum. Thus, this emitted energy can be used to identify the element from which your sample was taken.

Why the gross reading is needed when doing the titration? ​
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Because various factors can affect the actual value of the titration outcome. Some of these factors can range from errors from a researcher also known as human error, misreading the quantities, researcher's perception of the color, or wrong procedure in carrying out the experimentation.

Hence, in order to avoid such error, a researcher needs to be thorough during the process of experimentation, and using gross reading can help to avoid these errors when the titre value is eventually determined.

Alchen [17]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Ammonia has been studied as an alternative "clean" fuel for internal combustion engines, since its reaction with oxygen produces only nitrogen and water vapor, and in the liquid form it is easily transported. An industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a 5.0 L flask with 2.2 atm of ammonia gas and 2.4 atm of oxygen gas at 44.0°C. He then raises the temperature, and when the mixture has come to equilibrium measures the partial pressure of nitrogen gas to be 0.99 atm.

Calculate the pressure equilibrium constant for the combustion of ammonia at the final temperature of the mixture. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

<u>Answer:</u> The pressure equilibrium constant for the reaction is 32908.46

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given

Initial partial pressure of ammonia = 2.2 atm

Initial partial pressure of oxygen gas = 2.4 atm

Equilibrium partial pressure of nitrogen gas = 0.99 atm

The chemical equation for the reaction of ammonia and oxygen gas follows:

                    4NH_3(g)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2N_2(g)+6H_2O(g)

<u>Initial:</u>               2.2          2.4

<u>At eqllm:</u>        2.2-4x      2.4-3x         2x        6x

Evaluating the value of 'x':  

\Rightarrow 2x=0.99\\\\x=0.495

So, equilibrium partial pressure of ammonia = (2.2 - 4x) = [2.2 - 4(0.495)] = 0.22 atm

Equilibrium partial pressure of oxygen gas = (2.4 - 3x) = [2.4 - 3(0.495)] = 0.915 atm

Equilibrium partial pressure of water vapor = 6x = (6 × 0.495) = 1.98 atm

The expression of K_p for above equation follows:

K_p=\frac{(p_{N_2})^2\times (p_{H_2O})^6}{(p_{NH_3})^4\times (p_{O_2})^3}  

Putting values in above equation, we get:

K_p=\frac{(0.99)^2\times (1.98)^6}{(0.22)^4\times (0.915)^3}\\\\K_p=32908.46

Hence, the pressure equilibrium constant for the reaction is 32908.46

One of the emission spectral lines for Be31 has a wavelength of 253.4 nm for an electronic transition that begins in the state w
max2010maxim [7]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

   \lambda = 253.4 nm = 253.4 \times 10^{-9}m      (as 1 nm = 10^{-9})

            n_{1} = 5,        n_{2} = ?

Relation between energy and wavelength is as follows.

                    E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

                       = \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} Js \times 3 \times 10^{8} m/s}{253.4 \times 10^{-9}}

                       = 0.0784 \times 10^{-17} J

                       = 7.84 \times 10^{-19} J

Hence, energy released is 7.84 \times 10^{-19} J.

Also, we known that change in energy will be as follows.

     \Delta E = -2.178 \times (Z)^{2}[\frac{1}{n^{2}_{2}} - \frac{1}{n^{2}_{1}}

where, Z = atomic number of the given element

 7.84 \times 10^{-19} J = -2.178 \times (4)^{2}[\frac{1}{n^{2}_{2}} - \frac{1}{(5)^{2}}

    \frac{7.84 \times 10^{-19} J}{34.848} = \frac{1}{n^{2}_{2}} - \frac{1}{(5)^{2}}

      0.02 + 0.04 = \frac{1}{n^{2}_{1}}

                      n_{1} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{0.06}}

                          = 4

Thus, we can conclude that the principal quantum number of the lower-energy state corresponding to this emission is n = 4.
