Which of these electron transitions correspond to absorption of energy and which to emission?

The energy will be absorbed for the electron transitions n= 3 to n= 4.

There are two ways in which electrons can transition between energy levels:

  1. Absorption spectra: This type of spectra is seen when an electron jumps from a lower energy level to a higher energy level. In this process, energy is absorbed.
  2. Emission spectra: This type of spectra is seen when an electron jumps from a higher energy level to a lower energy level. In this process, energy is released in the form of photons.

for n=3 to n=4,  the equation used to calculate the energy of transition is,

E = - 2.178×10⁻¹⁸J ( 1 / ni² - 1/nf ²)

Thus, for n = 3 to n = 4, as the electron is getting jumped from lower energy level (n = 3) to higher energy level (n = 4), the energy will be absorbed.

The answer is (2). Heat always flows down the temperature gradient, from high temperature to low temperature. Therefore, since the person is the warmest, heat flows from the person to both the ice and the air. Additionally, since the air is warmer than the ice, heat flows from the air to the ice.

XY2Z3 ----- Linear

XY4Z ---- see saw

XY2Z2 ----- bent <109°

XY3Z2 ----- T shaped

XY3Z ----- Trigonal pyramidal

Explanation:

The valence shell electron pair repulsion theory ( VSEPR) gives the description of molecular geometry based on the relative number of electron pairs present in the molecule.

However, electron pairs repel each other, the repulsion between two lone pairs is greater than the repulsion between a lone pair and a bond pair which is also greater than the repulsion between two lone pairs.

The presence of lone pairs distort the bond angle and molecular geometry from the expected geometry based on VSEPR theory. Hence, in the presence of lone pairs of electron, the observed molecular geometry may be different from that predicted on the basis of the VSEPR theory, the bond angles also differ slightly or widely depending on the number of lone pairs present.

All the molecules in the question possess lone pairs, the number of electron pairs do not correspond to the observed molecular shape or geometry due to lone pair repulsion. Usually, the molecular geometry deals more with the arrangement of bonded atoms in the molecule.
