Chapter 1, Problem 1B.7E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The energy of a sodium atom when it generates a photon of wavelength 589nm has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Energy of a photon can be expressed mathematically as given below.

  E=hν=hcλ

Where, h is the Planck’s constant, ν is the frequency of radiation, c is the speed of light and λ is the wavelength of the radiation.

Answer to Problem 1B.7E

The energy of a sodium atom when it generates a photon of wavelength 589nm is 3.37×10-19J.

Explanation of Solution

Given that, the wavelength is 589nm.  The corresponding energy of a sodium atom when it generates a photon can be calculated as given below.

  E=hν=hcλE=(6.626×1034J.s)×(3×108m/s)589×109mE=3.37×10-19J[1nm=109m]

Therefore, the energy of a sodium atom when it generates a photon of wavelength 589nm is 3.37×10-19J.

Answer to Problem 1B.7E

The energy of 5.00mg sodium atoms emitting light at wavelength 589nm is 44.1J.

Explanation of Solution

Calculation of number of sodium atoms present in 5.00mg of sodium atoms:

  1moleofNa=23.0g1g=1000mg1moleofNacontains6.022×1023atoms.So,5.00mg×1g1000mg×1mole23.0g×6.022×1023atoms1mole=1.31×1020atoms

The energy of one sodium atom is 3.37×10-19J.  Then the energy of 1.31×1020atoms of sodium can be calculated as given below.

  E=(1.31×1020)×(3.37×1019J)=44.1J

Therefore, the energy of 5.00mg sodium atoms emitting light at wavelength 589nm is 44.1J.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The energy of 1.00mole sodium atoms emitting light of wavelength 589nm has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a).

Answer to Problem 1B.7E

The energy of 1.00mole sodium atoms emitting light of wavelength 589nm is 2.03×105J.mol-1.

Explanation of Solution

The energy of one sodium atom is 3.37×10-19J.

The energy of 1.00mole sodium atoms emitting light of wavelength 589nm can be calculated as shown below.

  E(permoleofphotons)=NAE(1photon)E(permoleofphotons)=(6.022×1023mol1)×(3.37×10-19J)E(permoleofphotons)=2.03×105J.mol-1

Therefore, the energy of 1.00mole sodium atoms emitting light of wavelength 589nm is 2.03×105J.mol-1.

Ideal Gas Law Practice Name If you need a refresher on Ideal Gas Law, go back to your Ideal Gas Law Reading Assignment from last week! On all of the following, you'll need to make sure to convert pressures to atm and convert temperatures to Kelvin in order to be able to use the R gas constant on your equation sheet! Given: Ideal Gas Law = then P= pressure V = volume R= ideal gas consent PV=nRT namount of substance n=PV/TR P=nRT/V I = temperature V=nRT/P T=PV/nR R=PV/nT 1. What pressure is required to contain 0.023 moles of nitrogen gas in a 4.2 L container at a temperature of 20.°C? 2. Oxygen gas is collected at a pressure of 123 kPa in a container which has a volume of 10.0 L. What temperature must be maintained on 0.500 moles of this gas in order to maintain this pressure? Express the temperature in degrees Celsius. 3. How many moles of chlorine gas would occupy a volume of 35.5 L at a pressure of 100.0 kPa and a temperature of 100. °C? After determining the number of moles,…
