Answer:

A chemical change occurred and a gas was produced.  

Step-by-step explanation:

If there is no chemical reaction, the <em>Law of Conservation of Mass</em> says that  

Total mass = Mass 1 + Mass 2

However, if the two liquids react and give off a gas, then

Total mass = Mass 1 + Mass 2 + Mass of gas

You are not measuring the mass of the gas, so the mass of the liquids after mixing is less than it was before mixing.

For example, if Liquid 1 was a solution of HCl and Liquid 2 was a solution of Na₂CO₃, they would give off CO₂ on mixing. but you would not be measuring the mass of the CO₂.

Calculate the energy difference for a transition in the paschen series for a transition from the higher energy shell n=4. expres
Troyanec [42]
Electrons are orbiting around the nucleus in a specific energy level as described in Bohr's atomic model. There are 7 energy levels all in all; 1 being the strongest and nearest to the nucleus, and 7 being the weakest and farthest away from the nucleus. Electron can transfer from one energy level to another. If it increases energy, it absorbs energy. If it goes down an energy level, it emits energy in the form of light. This light can be measure in wavelength through the Rydberg equation:

1/λ =R(1/n₁² -1/n₂²), where
λ is the wavelength
R is the Rydberg constant equal to 1.097 × 10⁻7<span> per meter
n</span>₁ and n₂ are the energy levels such that n₂>n₁

In the Paschen series is an emission spectrum of hydrogen when the energy level is at least n=4. So, this covers n=4 to n=7.

1/λ =(1.097 × 10⁻7)(1/4² -1/7²)
λ  = 216.57 ×10⁻⁶ m or 216.57 μm

Which of these was not proposed by john dalton in 1805?
wel

Answer:

Atoms are made of protons, neutrons and electrons.

Explanation:

The Dalton's atomic theory was an early attempt at describing the properties of atoms. It stipulated that atoms were the smallest indivisible particle of a substance. Chemical reactions occur as a result of a combination or separation of atoms. Atoms of the same element are exactly alike and differ from atoms of other elements. Atoms can neither be created nor destroyed.

As time went on, modern scientific evidence began to modify the original postulates of the Dalton's atomic theory. It was not postulated in 1805 that atoms were composed of subatomic particles; electrons, neutrons and protons. Dalton's theory held the atom to be 'indivisible'. However in 1897, JJ Thompson discovered the electron. Subsequently, the proton and neutrons were discovered. This shows that the atom in itself consisted of even smaller particles.
