The number of neutrons possessed by an isotope beryllium-9 is 5.

<h3>What is neutron?</h3>

Neutron is a subatomic particle forming part of the nucleus of an atom and having no charge.

The number of neutrons in the atom of an element can be calculated by subtracting the number of protons or atomic number from the mass number.

That is; no. of neutrons = mass number - no of protons

According to this question, Beryllium has an atomic number or proton number of 4. The number of neutrons in an isotope of beryllium-9 is as follows:

no of neutrons = 9 - 4 = 5

Therefore, the number of neutrons possessed by an isotope beryllium-9 is 5.

Using the Bohr model, determine the energy in joules of the photon produced when an electron in a Li2+ ion moves from the orbit
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

1.64x10⁻¹⁸ J

Explanation:

By the Bohr model, the electrons surround the nucleus of the atom in shells or levels of energy. Each one has it's energy, and the electron doesn't fall to the nucleus because it can reach another level of energy, and then return to its level.

When the electrons go to another level, it absorbs energy, and then, when return, this energy is released, as a photon (generally as luminous energy). The value of the energy can be calculated by:

E = hc/λ

Where h is the Planck constant (6.626x10⁻³⁴ J.s), c is the light speed (3.00x10⁸ m/s), and λ is the wavelength of the photon.

The wavelength can be calculated by:

1/λ = R*(1/nf² - 1/ni²)

Where R is the Rydberg constant (1.097x10⁷ m⁻¹), nf is the final orbit, and ni the initial orbit. So:

1/λ = 1.097x10⁷ *(1/1² - 1/2²)

1/λ = 8.227x10⁶

λ = 1.215x10⁻⁷ m

So, the energy is:

E = (6.626x10⁻³⁴ * 3.00x10⁸)/(1.215x10⁻⁷)

E = 1.64x10⁻¹⁸ J
