Question

4. The following transitions in the hydrogen atom invalve emitting energy as light. [Where ni and m or n2 are the two different Principle quantum numbers.] Rank them in order of increasing energy, greatest energy last. List them as 1 through 6 (greatest energy). [o infinity & 0 (zero S. For the hydrogen atom, the transitions from n X 2 occur in the visible spectrum you would expect transitions each of the groups of t microwave, radio, or gamma). Hint: greater or lesser energy than visible light? . Identify where ransitions to occur (X-ray, visible, ultraviolet, infrared, a) Transitions from n xn 3 mostly occur in therange b) Transitions from n Xn -1 mostly occur in the range. 6: Using the information from problem #3 and E hv-hc /A, where v-frequency (wavelengths / second), - wavelength (meter/wavelength) and h Planck's constant-6.62607 x 1034J s, calculate the wave length of the emitted light due to the transition from n = 4 1. Lambda (A) 7. Give an orbital diagram for all the electrons in each of the atoms listed below. The first one is done in

using,

dE = energy = -2.18 x 10^-18[1/nf^2 - 1/ni^2)

a) ni = 3 to nf = 2

dE = -2.18 x 10^-18[1/2^2 - 1/3^2]

     = -3.03 x 10^-19 J

b) ni = 5 to nf = 2

dE = -2.18 x 10^-18[1/2^2 - 1/5^2]

     = -4.6 x 10^-19 J

c) ni = infinity to nf = 5

dE = -2.18 x 10^-18[1/5^2]

     = -8.72 x 10^-20 J

d) ni = 2 to nf = 1

dE = -2.18 x 10^-18[1/1^2 - 1/2^2]

     = -1.09 x 10^-18 J

e) ni = 7 to nf = 2

dE = -2.18 x 10^-18[1/2^2 - 1/7^2]

     = 5.0 x 10^-19 J

f) ni = 4 to nf = 1

dE = -2.18 x 10^-18[1/1^2 - 1/4^2]

     = -2.04 x 10^-18 J

So, the order of energy in increasing order for transitions would be,

c) < a) < b) < e) < d) < f)

for hydrogen atom

transition n = X to n = 3 mostly occur in the Infrared region of electromagnetic spectrum

transition n = X to n = 1 mostly occur in the Ultraviolet region of electromagnetic spectrum
