Explain the effects that different frequencies of electromagnetic radiation have when absorbed by matter.

Answers

Answer 1
In order to answer this question we might first want to think about what is electromagnetic radiation. In essence it’s light, just some of the wavelengths are too long or too short for us to see.

We can think about it as two oscillating sinusoidal (goes up and down) waves, one is electric, the other is magnetic.

Because we’re dealing in waves, that means we can calculate their frequency, wavelength, amplitude (brightness) and period.

To calculate it we can use E=hc/lambda
Where E = jewels of energy
h = Planck’s constant
c = speed of light
Lambda = wavelength

It doesn’t really matter for this question what those things mean, just note that it takes more energy to have a shorter wavelength, or less energy to have a longer wavelength.

So now we can answer the question. Light of a longer wavelength has less energy than that of a shorter wavelength. So, when long wavelengths are absorbed by matter (atoms) they will give those atoms less energy. So, either it will pass through the object entirely or it will make the atoms vibrate a little bit more than they already are and we call that thermal energy, or heat.

If high energy wavelengths are passing through matter then they will be giving those atoms a lot of energy, sometimes even ionizing the atoms.
Which, if you’re a living thing can be very bad for your cells.

I hope that helps.
Answer 2

As the frequency of the radiation increases further, into the visible light spectrum, it can cause electronic transitions in atoms and molecules, leading to the emission of light and other optical effects.

What is electromagnetic radiation?

Electromagnetic radiation is a form of energy that travels through space in the form of waves, without the need for a medium to propagate. It is characterized by oscillating electric and magnetic fields that are perpendicular to each other and the direction of propagation.

At low frequencies, such as radio waves and microwaves, the radiation typically only causes heating of the matter, as it transfers energy to the molecules in the material.

At higher frequencies, such as infrared radiation, the radiation can cause vibrations in the atoms and molecules of matter, leading to heating and thermal effects.

Thus, When matter absorbs electromagnetic radiation, the effects that it has on the matter depend on the frequency of the radiation.

What is the oxidation half-reaction for this unbalanced redox equation? cr2o72– + fe2+ → cr3+ + fe3+ cr3+ → cr2o72– cr2o72– → cr3+ fe3+ → fe2+ fe2+ → fe3+?

Answers

Answer:

6Fe^2+(aq) -------> 6Fe^3+(aq) + 6e

Explanation:

The balanced oxidation half equation is;

6Fe^2+(aq) -------> 6Fe^3+(aq) + 6e

A redox reaction is actually an acronym for oxidation-reducation reaction. Since the both reactions are complementary, there can't be oxidation without reduction and there can't be reduction without oxidation.

The main characteristic of redox reactions is that electrons are transferred in the process. The number of electrons transferred is usually deduced from the balanced reaction equation. For this reaction, the balanced overall reaction equation is;

Cr2O7^2–(aq) + 6Fe^2+(aq) +14H^+(aq)→ 2Cr^3+(aq) + 6Fe^3+ (aq) + 7H2O(l)

It is clear from the equation above that six electrons were transferred. Thus six Fe^2+ ions lost one electron each in the oxidation half equation as shown in the balanced oxidation half equation above.

What is the % of each element in Ni3{PO4) 2 ?​

Answers

Answer:

nickel 48.1063%

Phosphorus 16.9245%

Oxygen 34.9692%

The percent composition of each element like nitrogen, oxygen and phosphorous in Ni₃(PO₄)₂ are 48.03%, 34.97% and 16.93% respectively.

How do we calculate % composition?

Percent composition of any element present in any compound will be calculated as:
% comosition = (Mass of element / Mass of compound)×100%

Mass of Ni₃(PO₄)₂ compound = 366.02 g/mol

Molar mass of 3 Nitrogen atoms = 3×58.6 = 175.8 g/mol

Moar mass of 2 Phosphorous atoms = 2×31 = 62 g/mol

Moar mass of 8 Oxygen atoms = 8×16 = 128 g/mol

% comosition of Nitrogen = (175.8/366.02)×100% = 48.03%

% comosition of Oxygen = (128/366.02)×100% = 34.97%

% comosition of Phosphorous = (62/366.02)×100% = 16.93%

Hence % composition of nitrogen, oxygen and phosphorous is 48.03%, 34.97% and 16.93% respectively.

Chloroform is a commonly used anesthetic with a density of 1.483 g/mL. Determine the volume of chloroform needed to deliver a 9.37 g sample of the anesthetic

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is 6.32 ml

Explanation:

We have the following data:

Mass : m = 9.37 g

Density : d= 1.483 g/mL

The density a substance is equal to the mass of the substance divided into its volume. So, we calculate the volume (V) of chloroform from the mass and density as follows:

[tex]d=\frac{m}{V}[/tex]   ⇒  [tex]V = \frac{m}{d} = \frac{9.37 g}{1.483 g/ml} = 6.32 ml[/tex]

How many grams of KF are in 2 liters of a 3.0 M solution of KF

Answers

Answer:

mass ( g ) = 348 g

Explanation:

First you know : M = mole / volume (L)

in question you have the M and V and the formula of SUBSTANCE ( KF )

first you get the number of mole from equation above

so 3 = no of mole / 2

no of mole = 3 × 2 = 6 moles

and the moles equation is no of moles = mass ( g ) / molecular weight ( g/mole )

so you have already calculate the moles and you can know the MW from the Question

Mw of KF = 39 + 19 = 58

so n = mass / MW

so 6 = mass / 58

mass ( g ) = 348 g

We notice that since there is an excess of water, we can directly compute the yielded grams of hydrogen by using the following stoichiometric procedure, considering the 2:1 molar ratio between sodium and hydrogen (notice the 2 before the sodium and the 1 before the hydrogen at the chemical reaction) and that gaseous hydrogen has a molar mass of 2 g/mol:

[tex]m_{H_2}=11.50gNa*\frac{1molNa}{22.98gNa} *\frac{1molH_2}{2.02molNa} *\frac{2gH_2}{1molH_2} \\\\m_{H_2}=0.504gH_2[/tex]

Answer:

0.503g of H₂ are produced

Explanation:

Based on the chemical reaction:

2 Na + 2 H₂O → 2 NaOH + H₂

2 moles of Na react with 2 moles of water to produce 2 moles of NaOH and 1 mole of H₂

11.50g of Na -limiting reactant, molar mass 22.99g/mol- are:

11.50g× (1mol / 22.99g) = 0.500 moles of Na.

As 2 moles of Na produce 1 mole of H₂:

0.500 moles of Na × (1 mole H₂ / 2 moles Na) = 0.250 moles of H₂

As molar mass of H₂ is 2.01g/mol:

0.250 moles of H₂ × (2.01g / 1mol) = 0.503g of H₂ are produced

How many milliliters of 0.2 M NaOH are required to exactly neutralize 40 milliliters of 0.1 M HCl?

A) 10
B) 20
C) 40
D) 80

Answers

Answer:

Option B. 20mL

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question.

Volume of base (Vb) =..?

Molarity of base (Mb) = 0.2M

Volume of acid (Va) = 40mL

Molarity of acid (Ma) = 0.1M

Step 2:

The balanced equation for the reaction.

HCl + NaOH —> NaCl + H2O

From the balanced equation above, the following were obtained:

Mole ratio of the acid (nA) = 1

Mole ratio of the base (nB) = 1

Step 3:

Determination of the volume of base, NaOH needed for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

MaVa/MbVb = nA/nB

0.1 x 40 / 0.2 x Vb = 1

Cross multiply

0.2 x Vb = 0.1 x 40

Divide both side by 0.2

Vb = 0.1 x 40 / 0.2

Vb = 20mL

Therefore, the volume of the base is 20mL.

If a strong base, like NaOH, is added to a strong acid, like HCl, the pH of the resultant solution will _________. A.) Go up B.) Go down C.) Stay the same

Answers

Answer:

B.) Go down

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, a strong base like NaOH has a high pH based on the scale wherein 7 is neutral, above 7 is basic and below 7 is acid. In such a way, by adding an acid, having a low pH, once it is added, the pH will go down until the equivalence point, which for strong base and strong acid should be 7.

Best regards.

Answer:

B) Go down

Explanation:

pH is defined as -log [H⁺], that means when concentration of H⁺ increases the pH decreases and when concentration of H⁺ decreases, pH increases.

When a strong acid as HCl is added to a solution, it is dissolved, thus:

HCl → H⁺ + Cl⁻

Thus, addition of a strong acid decreases pH because concentration of H⁺ increases.

Right answer is:

B) Go down

1.5 L

2.25 L

1.0 L

0.75 L

Answers

Answer:

1.5 L

Explanation:

Step 1:

The balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

HCl + NaOH —> NaCl + H2O

From the balanced equation above, The mole ratio of the acid (nA) = 1

The mole ratio of the base (nB) = 1

Step 2:

Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Molarity of acid (Ma) = 0.5M

Volume of acid (Va) =..?

Volume of base (Vb) = 1L

Molarity of base (Mb) = 0.75M

Step 3:

Determination of the volume of the acid needed for the reaction.

Using the formula:

MaVa/MbVb = nA/nB

The volume of the acid needed for the reaction can be obtained as follow:

0.5 x Va / 0.75 x 1 = 1

Cross multiply

0.5 x Va = 0.75 x 1

Divide both side by 0.5

Va = 0.75 /0.5

Va = 1.5 L

Therefore, the volume of the acid, HCl needed for the reaction is 1.5L
