For a hydrogen atom, which electronic transition would result in the emission of a photon with the highest energy?

Chemistry

BartSMP [9]3 years ago

Answer: A

Explanation:

Considering the order of filling electrons into orbitals, movement from a higher to a lower energy level results in the emission of a photon with energy equal to the energy difference between the two energy levels. However, the energies of different orbitals are close together for high values of n (principal quantum number). Their relative energies may change significantly when they form ions. This implies that energy levels are better separated and have high differences in energy for low values of n. Hence the answer. This means that photons transiting between these Lowe n levels will posses higher photon energy due to larger energy difference between levels.

When atmospheric pressure decreases, the mercury height in a barometer
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Decreases

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure on the surface of the mercury pushes it up the evacuated tube until the downward pressure of the mercury equals the atmospheric pressure.

If the atmospheric pressure decreases, the mercury doesn't have to rise as high.

The mercury height decreases.
