Expert Solution
13. a) When an electron jumps from the 4s (n= 4) orbital to a 2p
(n =2) orbital, the electron is coming down from higher energy
level to lower energy level so the light will emit and it belongs
to Balmer series.
Consider a hydrogen atom with its electron in the nth orbital. Electromagnetic radiation of wavelength 90 nm is used to ionize the atom. If the kinetic energy of the ejected electron is 10.4 eV, then the value of n is (hc = 1242 eV nm).
Which of the following electron jumps in a hydrogen
atom emits the photon of highest frequency?
a) n=2 to n=3
b) n=1 to n=2
3) n=3 to n=2
4) n=2 to n=1
The hydrogen atom can absorb light of wavelength 2626 nm.
A)Determine the initial value of n associated with this
absorption.
B)Determine the final value of n associated with this
absorption.
An electron in the hydrogen atom falls from the 2p to 1s state and a photon is emitted. What is the wavelength of the emitted photon (in nm)?
Select one:
a. 20
b. 91
c. 122
d. 364
e. 138
For the hydrogen atom, the transition from the 2p state to the
1s state is accompanied by the emission of a photon with an energy
of 16.2×10-19 J. For a C atom, the same
transition (2p to 1s) is accompanied by the emission of x-rays of
wavelength 44.7 Å. What is the energy difference
between these states in carbon?
J
The energy difference between these states in
carbon is _________larger than smaller than about
the same as the corresponding energy...
