Electrons are transferred from one atom to another describes ionic bonding.

Option D

<u>Explanation</u>:

Ionic bonding requires at least one acceptor and one donor. ''Ionic bond'' is the movement of ''valence electrons'' between atoms. It gives two oppositely charged ions after taking place. The metal loses electrons and form a positive cation, and non metals gains electrons to become negative cations. Thus electron donor is a metal, and electron acceptor is usually a non metal. Thus, it is evident that in ionic bonding electrons are transferred between atoms.

D. Ionic bonding is when electrons are transferred. When they're shared, it is covalent. In order to take an electron from a full valence electeon shell, you would need a massive amount of energy.

Calculate the energy, wavelength, and frequency of the emitted photon when an electron moves from an energy level of -3.40 eV to

jasenka [17]

Answer:

(a) The energy of the photon is 1.632 x $10^{-8}$ J.

(b) The wavelength of the photon is 1.2 x $10^{-17}$ m.

Explanation:

Let;

$E_{1}$ = -13.60 ev

$E_{2}$ = -3.40 ev

(a) Energy of the emitted photon can be determined as;

$E_{2}$ - $E_{1}$ = -3.40 - (-13.60)

= -3.40 + 13.60

= 10.20 eV

= 10.20(1.6 x $10^{-9}$ )

$E_{2}$ - $E_{1}$ = 1.632 x $10^{-8}$ Joules

The energy of the emitted photon is 10.20 eV (or 1.632 x $10^{-8}$ Joules).

(b) The wavelength, λ, can be determined as;

E = (hc)/ λ

where: E is the energy of the photon, h is the Planck's constant (6.6 x $10^{-34}$ Js), c is the speed of light (3 x $10^{8}$ m/s) and λ is the wavelength.
