Electrons are orbiting around the nucleus in a specific energy level as described in Bohr's atomic model. There are 7 energy levels all in all; 1 being the strongest and nearest to the nucleus, and 7 being the weakest and farthest away from the nucleus. Electron can transfer from one energy level to another. If it increases energy, it absorbs energy. If it goes down an energy level, it emits energy in the form of light. This light can be measure in wavelength through the Rydberg equation:

1/λ =R(1/n₁² -1/n₂²), where
λ is the wavelength
R is the Rydberg constant equal to 1.097 × 10⁻7<span> per meter
n</span>₁ and n₂ are the energy levels such that n₂>n₁

In the Paschen series is an emission spectrum of hydrogen when the energy level is at least n=4. So, this covers n=4 to n=7.

1/λ =(1.097 × 10⁻7)(1/4² -1/7²)
λ  = 216.57 ×10⁻⁶ m or 216.57 μm

Answer:

C. Occurs where a plate is moving down.

Explanation:

Ocean trenches are steep depressions in the deepest parts of the ocean where old ocean crust from one tectonic plate is pushed beneath another plate, raising mountains, causing earthquakes, and forming volcanoes on the seafloor and on land.

An unknown metal displaces Ali from solution but does not displace sodium using the activity series determine the unknown metal
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The reactivity of metal is determined by the reactivity series. ... The metal which easily displaced aluminium will lie above in the series but that same element cannot displace sodium, so it will lie below in the series. Hence, from the series, we conclude that the unknown metal could be calcium or magnesium.

Explanation:

Hope this helps! :)

erik [133]

Answer:

The first high part is Q4, then the low part is Q7, the following high part is Q6, and the energy moving from the next two high points is Q5.

Explanation:

The first high part is Q4, then the low part is Q7, the following high part is Q6, and the energy moving from the next two high points is Q5 because of the diagram.
