Calculate the shortest wavelength of electromagnetic radiation present in Balmer series of hydrogen spectrum.
Advertisements
उत्तर
For shortest wavelength in Balmer series nf = 2, n1 = ∞
`1/lambda = "R" [1/"n"_"f"^2 - 1/"n"_"i"^2]`
`1/lambda = "R" [1/4]`
`therefore lambda = 4/"R"`
`= 4/(1.097 xx 10^7) "m"`
`= 3.646 xx 10^-7"m"`
= 3646 Å

Name the electromagnetic radiation whose frequency is 10 Hz.
In an atom X, electrons absorb the energy from an external source. This energy “excites” the electrons from a lower-energy level to a higher-energy level around the nucleus of the atom. When electrons return to the ground state, they emit photons.
The figure below is the energy level diagram of atom X with three energy levels, E1 = 0.00eV, E2 = 1.78eV and E3 = 2.95eV. The ground state is considered 0 eV for reference. The transition of electrons takes place between levels E1 and E2.
- What wavelength of radiation is needed to excite the atom to energy level E2 from E1?
- Suppose the external source has a power of 100 W. What would be the rate of photon emission?
