The work function of an element is the energy required to remove an electron from the surface of the solid. The work function for palladium is 503.7 kJ/mol (that is, it takes 503.7 kJ of energy to remove 1 mole of electrons from 1 mole of Pd atoms on the surface of Pd metal). What is the maximum wavelength of light that can remove an electron from an atom in palladium metal

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

λ = 2.38 × 10^(-7) m

Explanation:

We are given the work function for palladium as 503.7 kJ/mol.

Now let's convert this to KJ/electron.

We know from avogadro's number that;

1 mole of electron = 6.022 × 10^(23) electrons

Thus,

503.7 kJ/mol = 503.7 × 1/(6.022 × 10^(23)) = 8.364 × 10^(-22) KJ/electron = 8.364 × 10^(-19) J/electron

Formula for energy of a photon is;

E = hv

Where;

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 × 10^(-34) J.s

v is velocity

Now, v = c/λ

Where;

c is speed of light = 3 × 10^(8) m/s

λ is wavelength of light.

Thus;

E = hc/λ

Making λ the subject, we have;

λ = hc/E

λ = (6.626 × 10^(-34) × 3 × 10^(8))/(8.364 × 10^(-19))

λ = 2.38 × 10^(-7) m

Find the mass in grams of 15.00 moles of AICI:

Answers

Answer:

937.5g

Explanation:

No of moles = mass ÷ molar mass

According to this question, there are 15moles of the compound; AlCl

Molar mass of AlCl = 27 + 35.5

= 62.5g/mol

Using n = m/M.M

15 = m/62.5

m = 15 × 62.5

m = 937.5g

A balloon, inflated in an air-conditioned room at 27.0°C, has a volume
of 4.50.L. It is heated to a temperature of 57.0°C. What is the new
volume of the balloon if the pressure remains constant?

Answers

Answer:

4.95L

Explanation:

Using Charle's law equation;

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Where;

V1 = initial volume (L)

V2 = final volume (L)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

T2 = final temperature (K)

According to the question, the following information was given:

V1 = 4.50L

V2 = ?

T1 = 27°C = 27 + 273 = 300K

T2 = 57°C = 57 + 273 = 330K

Using V1/T1 = V2/T2

4.50/300 = V2/330

Cross multiply

300 × V2 = 4.5 × 330

300V2 = 1485

V2 = 1485 ÷ 300

V2 = 4.95L

Na3N decomposes to form sodium and nitrogen gas at STP. If 13.7 L of nitrogen is produced
how many moles of Na3N was used? (22.4 L = 1 mole of any gas)
2Na3N --> 6Na + N2

Answers

Answer: 1.224 moles of [tex]Na_3N[/tex] were used.

Explanation:

We are given:

Volume of nitrogen gas produced = 13.7 L

At STP conditions:

22.4 L of volume is occupied by 1 mole of a gas

Applying unitary method:

13.7 L of nitrogen gas will be occupied by = [tex]\frac{1mol}{22.4L}\times 13.7L=0.612mol[/tex]

For the given chemical reaction:

[tex]2Na_3N\rightarrow 6Na+N_2[/tex]

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of nitrogen gas is produced by 2 mole of [tex]Na_3N[/tex]

So, 0.612 moles of nitrogen gas will be produced from = [tex]\frac{2}{1}\times 0.612=1.224mol[/tex] of [tex]Na_3N[/tex]

Hence, 1.224 moles of [tex]Na_3N[/tex] were used.

The bottle slides down the hill and is moving at a velocity of 14 meters/second the instant it hits the ground. The vertical height from where Jeff dropped the bottle is meters. Ignore friction, and use , PE = m × g × h, and g = 9.8 m/s2.

Answers

Answer:

10 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Velocity (v) = 14 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Height (h) =?

Next, we shall determine the energy. This can be obtained as follow:

Velocity (v) = 14 m/s

Kinetic Energy (KE) =?

KE = ½mv²

KE = ½ × m × 14²

KE = ½ × m × 196

KE = m × 98

Finally, we shall determine the height. This can be obtained as follow:

Kinetic energy (KE) = m × 98

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Height (h) =?

Since the object is falling from a particular height,

Potential energy (PE) = kinetic energy (KE)

PE = mgh

KE = m × 98

m × 9.8 × h = m × 98

Divide both side by m × 9.8

h = m × 98 / m × 9.8

h = 10 m

Thus, the bottle was dropped from a height of 10 m

The carbonyl carbon in a ketone is attacked primarily by the peroxy oxygen bonded to hydrogen as opposed to the peroxy oxygen bonded to carbon because:

Answers

Answer:

This is because peroxy oxygen bonded to hydrogen can easily undergo nucleophilic protonation with the carbonyl carbon to form an alcohol

Explanation:

A ketone is a functional group that contains a carbonyl group (carbon-oxygen double bond ( R1R2-C=O).

The carbonyl carbon doubly bonded to the oxygen is electron deficient as a result of difference in electronegativity between carbon and oxygen, hence is susceptible to nucleophilic attacks

R1R2 - C = O

where R1 and R2 are organic substituents.

The peroxy oxygen that is bonded to hydrogen (H -O-O-R) is the electron-rich centre and easily attacks electron-deficient centres like the carbonyl carbon in ketones to form an alcohol.

The bond between the hydrogen attached to the peroxy oxygen is broken and the resultant hydrogen ion undergoes protonation with the oxygen of the carbonyl group to form an alcohol

R1R2 - C = O + H - O-O - R =>

R1R2- CH - OH + R - O-O-R1

5.34x10 to the 27th power molecules of sulfur hexafluoride to moles of sulfur hexafluoride

Answers

Answer:

8.87 × 10³ moles.

Explanation:

To convert number of molecules of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) to moles (n), we divide by Avogadro's number (6.02 × 10²³)

That is; n = N ÷ nA

According to the question, 5.34 x 10^27 molecules of SF6 was given in this question. Hence, the number of moles it contains is given as:

n = 5.34 x 10^27 ÷ 6.02 × 10²³

n = 5.34/6.02 × 10^ (27-23)

n = 0.887 × 10⁴

n = 8.87 × 10³ moles.
