Concept explainers
A chemist identifies compounds by identifying bright lines in their spectra. She does so by healing the compounds until they glow, sending the light through a diffraction grating, and measuring the positions of first-order spectral lines on a detector 15.0 cm behind the grating. Unfortunately, she has lost the card that gives the specifications of the grating. Fortunately, she has a known compound that she can use to calibrate the grating. She heats the known compound, which emits light at a wavelength of 461 nm, and observes a spectral line 9.95 cm from the center of the diffraction pattern. What are the wavelengths emitted by compounds A and B that have spectral lines detected at positions 8.55 cm and 12.15 cm, respectively?

- Tungsten is a very high density, high melting point, and hard metal. These properties are partially due to its body centered cubic (BCC) crystal structure. Tungsten has an atomic number of 74 and an average mass of 183.8u. (1u = 1.661x10-27 kg). X-ray diffraction experiments determine that the Bravais lattice has a characteristic length of 3.155 Å (This means each side of the cube shown below has a length of 0.3155 nm.)What is the density of single-crystalline tungsten? (Give your answer in g/cm.) Note: Single-crystalline indicates that the BCC unit cell repeats indefinitely. In poly-crystalline metals there are multiple domains with boundaries where the crystal structures do not line up. These materials tend to be much more brittle.arrow_forwardTungsten is a very high density, high melting point, and hard metal.
