Practice Midterm 8b
A newly designed laser pointed with a certain frequency is pointed at a sodium metal surface. An electron is ejected from the metal surface with wavelength 1.10nm. What is the frequency of the light from the laser pointer? The work function of sodium is 150.6kJmol-1. I'm not too sure which equations...

Midterm Practice Problem #1
Isopropyl alcohol, used in rubbing alcohol, is a compound containing only C, H, and O. What is the empirical formula of isopropyl alcohol if you find that 0.255 g of the compound gives 0.561g of CO2 and 0.306 g of H2O when burned completely in excess oxygen?

Practice Midterm 6a
6a) A new element GarBreadium is discovered to have molar mass 3.157g.mol-1. The GarBreadium atom travels at an average speed of 1.35x10^3m.s-1 at room temperature. What is the average wavelength of the GarBreadium atom at room temperature? Would I use the DeBroglie formula for this question? If so,...

Re: 2.19 (b)
which version of textbook do you have? I have the 6th edition and 2.19b asks for "How many values of m are allowed for an electron in a 6d-subshell?" to which the answer would be m= -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 since l=3 as the electron is in a d-orbital. ahhh oki i see where i went wrong! yes, i have...

2.19 (b)
(b) How many values of m are allowed for an electron in a 5f-subshell? I got: n = 5 (from the "5" in 5f) l = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 (0, 1, ... n-1) m = 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, -1, -2, -3, -4 However, the solutions manual says that m has 5 values: -2, -1, 0, 1, 2. Would someone please explain to me where I w...

Re: Grades
Grades should be on myucla by the end of the quarter, I think!

Hoping someone could help me with this problem! Thanks.
What is the minimum uncertainty in the speed of an electron confined to within a lead atom of diameter 350. pm? Model the atom as a one-dimensional box with a length equal to the diameter of the actual atom.
