Energy levels are the electron shells where electrons are found at a fixed distance from the nucleus of the atom. The atom could emit 6 different wavelengths.

<h3>What is wavelength?</h3>

A wavelength is a distance between the adjacent crests in wave signals propagated in a system. Wavelength (\rm \lambda ) is in inverse relation to the frequency of the wave.

When an electron jumps from energy level 1 to 2, 1 to 3, and 1 to 4 one wavelength each is present. Hence, making the total wavelength to be 3, in transition from the first energy level.

Similarly, from energy levels, 2 to 3 and 2 to 4, a total of 2 wavelengths, and from energy levels 3 to 4 one wavelength is produced.

So the total different wavelengths of the radiation that can be emitted will be 3 + 2 + 1 = 6.

Therefore, 6 different wavelengths of radiation will be emitted by the atom.

if 75 moles of ammonia is needed, how many grams of nitrogen will be consumed? N2(g) + 3H2(g) --&gt; 2NH3(g)
zalisa [80]

Answer: 37.5

Explanation: Since NH3 has a coefficient of 2, that means it will produce 2x the moles as N2. Since 75 moles of NH3 will be used, in order to figure out N2 you would do the following:

75 mol / 2 = 37.5

Oh wait this said grams, sorry! Let me fix it.
