Schrodinger and de Broglie suggested a ‘Wave—particle duality" for small particles—that is, if electromagnetic radiation showed some particle-like properties, then perhaps small punicles might exhibit same wave-like properties. Explain. How does the wave mechanical picture of the atom fundamentally differ from the Bohr model? How do wave mechanical arbitals differ from Bohr’s orbits? What does it mean to say that an orbital represents a probability map for an electron?
Enrico Fermi (1901–1954) was a famous physicist who liked to pose what are now known as Fermi problems, in which several assumptions are made in order to make a seemingly impossible estimate. Probably the most famous example is the estimate of the number of piano tuners in Chicago using the approximate population of the city and assumptions about how many households have pianos, how often pianos need tuning, and how many hours a given tuner works in a year. Another famous example of a Fermi problem is "Caesar's last breath," which estimates that you, right now, are breathing some of the molecules exhaled by Julius Caesar just before he died. The assumptions made are: 1. The gas molecules from Caesar's last breath are now evenly dispersed in the atmosphere. 2. The atmosphere is 50 km thick, has an average temperature of 15 °C, and an average pressure of 0.20 atm. 3. The radius of the Earth is about 6400 km. 4. The volume of a single human breath is roughly 500 mL. Perform the…
Consider the molecules: CH2=CH-CH=CH-CH=CH-CH=CH-CH=CH2. let’s assume that the 10 electrons that make up the double bonds can exist everywhere along the carbon chains. The electrons can then be considered as particles in a box; the ends of the molecule correspond to the boundaries of the box with a finite or zero potential energy inside. In this “molecular box”, 2 electrons can occupy an energy level. What are quantum states that the electrons from this molecule can occupy in the ground state? What’s the smallest frequency of light that can excite the electron? Briefly explain why. Note that the length of a C-C bond is about 1.54A and the length of a C=C bond is 1.34A to allow you to estimate the length of the “molecular box”

The noble gas emits light as a result of ionisation of gaseous atoms. State which noble gas ionises most readily and explain your answer. Suggest two reasons why the noble gases become less ideal in their behaviour down the group from helium to xenon. Under what condition of temperature and pressure is the behaviour of real gases similar to ideal gases? Explain your answer.

(A) if both sentences are true, (B) if both sentences are false, (C) if the first sentence is true but the second is false, and (D) if the first sentence is false but the second is true. 1. Water appears in nature in all three common states of matter. Water is a tasteless, odorless liquid at standard temperature and pressure. 2. The addition of salt in the distilling mixture made the water impure and saline. The addition of 5 drops of the silver nitrate solution into the distillate determines whether the distillate is impure or pure water. 3. The ideal electrical conductivity of totally pure water is 0.055 microSiemens, whereas typical deionized water has an electrical conductivity of 0.1 microSiemens. The freezing point of water at 1 atm is 100degC. 4. From the air, oxygen can slowly diffuse across the water’s surface from the surrounding atmosphere, or be mixed in quickly through aeration, whether natural or man-made. The aeration of water can be caused by wind (creating waves),…
