Using the ionization energy for sodium (495 kJ/mole), would a photon with a wavelength of 23.7 nm be able to transfer enough energy to the valence electron in a sodium atom to cause it to ionize if all of the energy of the photon is transferred to the 3s1 electron of the sodium atom? What would be the maximum kinetic energy of the ejected electron?.

Which process does not require the presence of a physical substance in order to transfer heat? air in the atmosphere is heated by the ground. this warm air then rises, and cooler air falls. this is an example of what type of process? how is conduction different from radiation?

The last few miles of the marathon are the most difficult for heather, her hair plastered to her head, sweat clinging to her arms, and her legs already feeling as if they had nothing left, just dead weight. after grabbing a cup of ice water, she feels the ice cubes smash against her nose as she gulps some cool refreshment and keeps on running. in these last few miles, the breeze kicks up and she finally feels some coolness against her skin. drips of sweat, once clinging to her forehead, now spill down, and heather feels more pain as the sweat flows into her eyes.which of the following is the most likely reason why the ice struck heather’s nose when she took a drink? a) water can function as a solvent. b) water can store large amounts of heat. c) water can moderate temperatures through evaporative cooling. d) the density of water decreases when it freezes. e) water has a cohesive nature.sweat remained on heather’s forehead and arms because of the a) high salt content of sweat b) cohesive nature of water c) ability of water to moderate heat d) high evaporative cooling effect of water e) ability of water to act as a solvent

4.25g sample of solid ammonium nitrate dissolves in 60.0g of water in a coffee-cup calorimeter, the temperature drops from 22.0 c to 16.9 c. assume that the specific heat of the solution is the same as that of pure water. calculate delta(h) (in kj/mol nh4no3) for the solution proces.
