The formula to be used for this problem is as follows:

E = hc/λ, where h is the Planck's constant, c is the speed of light and λ is the wavelength. Also 1 aJ = 10⁻¹⁸ J

0.696×10⁻¹⁸ = (6.62607004×10⁻³⁴ m²·kg/s)(3×10⁸ m/s)/λ
Solving for λ,
λ = 2.656×10⁻⁷ m or <em>0.022656 nm</em>

Analyze: The first shell can hold a maximum of two electrons. How does this explain the valence of hydrogen
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Hydrogen has a valency of +1 or -1. Its electronic configuration is 1s1.

The 1s sub-level (first shell) is known to hold two electrons. This means that hydrogen may either loose this one electron in the 1s level to yield H^+ or accept another electron into this 1s level to form H^- (the hydride ion).

The formation of the hydride ion completes the 1s orbital.

Describe an electron cloud. Then, name and explain a particular atomic model that used the concept of the electron cloud.
pochemuha

Electron cloud is the region around the nucleus in an atom where we can locate an electron.

The concept of electron cloud model was introduced by the Schrodinger and Heisenberg. According to this model, it would be difficult to know the position of the electrons in an atom and they are not particles that orbit around the nucleus.  We can only expect the electrons to be present in specific areas called the electron clouds around the nucleus. It is the quantum mechanical model that used the concept of electron clouds. According to the model, the electron cloud or an orbital is a space around the nucleus in an atom where the probability of finding an electron is 90%. It explains that electrons show wave nature. It is difficult to determine the exact position and momentum of an electron in an atom.

tester [92]
<span>According to the law of conservation of energy and due that all the chemical energy is converted to other three types of energy, the total sum of these three energies after the explosion must be the same than the initial energy, that is 100 units.</span>
