Which of the following atoms would have the longest de Broglie wavelength, if all have the same velocity?

GenaCL600 [577]2 years ago

Answer:

Li

Explanation:

The phenomenon of wave particle duality was well established by Louis deBroglie. The wavelength associated with matter waves was related to its mass and velocity as shown below;

λ= h/mv

Where;

λ= wavelength of matter waves

m= mass of the particle

v= velocity of the particle

This implies that if the velocities of all particles are the same, the wavelength of matter waves will now depend on the mass of the particle. Hence; the wavelength of a matter wave associated with a particle is inversely proportional to the magnitude of the particle's linear momentum. The longest wavelength will then be obtained from the smallest mass of matter. Hence lithium which has the smallest mass will exhibit the longest DeBroglie wavelength

An atom of the element zinc has an atomic number of 30 and a mass number of 65. How many protons does an uncharged zinc atom hav
navik [9.2K]

Answer : The correct option is, 30 protons

Explanation :

Element = Zinc

Atomic number = 30

Atomic mass number = 65

As we know that the atomic number is equal to the number of electrons and number of protons.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons = 30

Number of neutrons = Atomic mass - Number of protons = 65 - 30 = 35

Therefore, the number of protons an uncharged zinc atom have 30 protons.

Which statement is TRUE about polar covalent bond?
Anvisha [2.4K]
I think the correct answer among the choices listed above is option D. Polar covalent bond is seen in molecules where <span>electrons are not shared equally between atoms. This makes the molecule to have a partially positive and partially negative sides.</span>

Why does 4.03/0.0000035 = 1.2 x 106, instead of a different number of significant figures?
jasenka [17]

Explanations:- As per the significant figures rule, In multiplication and division, we go with least number of sig figs.

4.03 has three sig figs where as 0.0000035 has two sig figs only, The zeros in this number are not sig figs as they are just holding the place values. As the least number of sig figs here is two, the answer needs to be reported with two sig figs only.

\frac{4.03}{0.0000035}=1.2*10^6

Identify the conjugate acid base pair <br> H3PO4(ag)+CO32=HCO3-(ag)+HPO42-(ag)
viktelen [127]

Answer:

H₃PO₄/H₂PO₄⁻ and HCO₃⁻/CO₃²⁻

Explanation:

An acid is a proton donor; a base is a proton acceptor.

Thus, H₃PO₄ is the acid, because it donates a proton to the carbonate ion.

CO₃²⁻ is the base, because it accepts a proton from the phosphoric acid.

The conjugate base is what's left after the acid has given up its proton.

The conjugate acid is what's formed when the base has accepted a proton.

H₃PO₄/H₂PO₄⁻ make one conjugate acid/base pair, and HCO₃⁻/CO₃²⁻ are the other conjugate acid/base pair.

H₃PO₄ + CO₃²⁻ ⇌ H₂PO₄⁻ + HCO₃⁻
