Question
The first three energy levels of the fictitious element X are shown in the figure(Figure 1) .
Part A
What is the ionization energy of element X?
Express your answer using three significant figures
Part B
What wavelengths are observed in the absorption spectrum of element X? Express your answers in nm.
Express your answers using three significant figures. Enter your answers in ascending order separated by a comma.
Part C
State whether each of your wavelengths in part B corresponds to ultraviolet, visible, or infrared light.
choose one of the following:
?1 is visible, ?2 is infrared ?1 is ultraviolet, ?2 is infrared ?1 is ultraviolet, ?2 is visible both wavelengths are infrared both wavelengths are visible both wavelengths are ultraviolet The first three energy levels of the fictitious element X are shown in the figure(Figure 1) . no title provided Part A What is the ionization energy of element X?

Express your answers using three significant figures. Enter your answers in ascending order separated by a comma. Part C State whether each of your wavelengths in part B corresponds to ultraviolet, visible, or infrared light. choose one of the following: ?1 is visible, ?2 is infrared ?1 is ultraviolet, ?2 is infrared ?1 is ultraviolet, ?2 is visible both wavelengths are infrared both wavelengths are visible both wavelengths are ultravioletExplanation / Answer
a) ionization energy = Einiinity - E1
= 0 + 6.5
ionization energy = 6.5 eV
------------------------------------------
lamda = (6.626 * 10-34 * 3 * 108) / ((6.5-2) * 1.6 * 10-19)
= 276 nm
lamda = h c / E = (6.626 * 10-34 * 3 * 108) / ((6.5-3) * 1.6 * 10-19)
= 355 nm
----------------------------------------------
both wavelengths are ultraviolet
both wavelengths are in ultraviolet part of the spectrum
