- An FM radio station found at 103.1 on the FM dial broadcasts at a frequency of 1.031188s1 (103.1 MHz). What is the wavelength of these radio waves in meters?arrow_forwardWarm objects emit electromagnetic radiation in the infrared region. Heat lamps employ this principle to generate infrared radiation. Water absorbs infrared radiation with wavelengths near 2.80 m. Suppose this radiation is absorbed by the water and converted to heat. A 1.00-L sample of water absorbs infrared radiation, and its temperature increases from 20.0C to 30.0C. How many photons of this radiation are used to heat the water?arrow_forward(a) Which color in the visible spectrum has the highest frequency? Which has the lowest frequency? (b) Is the wavelength of the radiation used in a microwave oven (2.45 GHz) longer or shorter than that from your favorite FM radio station (for example, 91.7 MHz)? (c) Are the wavelengths of x-rays longer or shorter than those of ultraviolet light? (d) Calculate the frequency of green light with a wavelength of 510. nm.arrow_forward
- Ozone in the stratosphere absorbs ultraviolet light of wavelengths shorter than 320 nm, thus filtering out the most energetic radiation from sunlight. During this absorption, an ozone molecule absorbs a photon, which breaks an oxygen-oxygen bond, yielding an oxygen molecule and an oxygen atom: O3(g)+hvO2(g)+O(g) (Here, hv denotes a photon.) Suppose a flask of ozone is irradiated with a pulse of UV light of wavelength 275 nm. Assuming that each photon of this pulse that is absorbed breaks up one ozone molecule, calculate the energy absorbed per mole of O2 produced, giving the answer in kJ/mol.arrow_forwardPhotons of infrared radiation are responsible for much of the warmth we feel when holding our hands before a fire. These photons will also warm other objects. How many infrared photons with a wavelength of 1.5106 m must be absorbed by the water to warm a cup of water (175 g) from 25.0 C to 40 C?arrow_forwardThe root-mean-square speed of an oxygen molecule, O2, at 21C is 479 m/s. Calculate the de Broglie wavelength for an O2 molecule traveling at this speed. How does this wavelength compare with the approximate length of this molecule, which is about 242 pm? (For this comparison, state the wavelength as a percentage of the molecular length.)arrow_forward

What is the energy of a single photon emitted by such a laser? What is the energy of one mole of these photons?arrow_forwardRGB color television and computer displays use cathode ray tubes that produce colors by mixing red, green, and blue light. If we look at the screen with a magnifying glass, we can see individual dots turn on and off as the colors change. Using a spectrum of visible light, determine the approximate wavelength of each of these colors. What is the frequency and energy of a photon of each of these colors?arrow_forward
