According to the equation for the Balmer line spectrum of hydrogen, a value of n = 3 gives a red spectral line at 656.3 nm, a va
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

E3 = 3.03 10⁻¹⁶ kJ,  E4 = 4.09 10⁻¹⁶ kJ and  E5 = 4.58 10⁻¹⁶ kJ

Explanation:

They give us some spectral lines of the Balmer series, let's take the opportunity to place the values in SI units

     n = 3        λ = 656.3 nm = 656.3 10⁻⁹ m

     n = 4        λ = 486.1 nm = 486.1 10⁻⁹ m

     n = 5        λ=434.0 nm = 434.0 10⁻⁹ m

Let's use the Planck equation

     E = h f

The speed of light equation

   c = λ f

replace

    E = h c /λ

Where h is the Planck constant that is worth 6.63 10⁻³⁴ J s and c is the speed of light that is worth 3 10⁸ m / s

Let's calculate the energies

     E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸ / λ

     E = 19.89 10⁻²⁶ /λ

n = 3

    E3 = 19.89 10⁻²⁶ / 656.3 10⁻⁹

    E3 = 3.03 10⁻¹⁹ J

    1 kJ = 10³ J

    E3 = 3.03 10⁻¹⁶ kJ

n = 4

    E4 = 19.89 10⁻²⁶ /486.1 10⁻⁹

    E4 = 4.09 10⁻¹⁹ J

    E4 = 4.09 10⁻¹⁶ kJ

n = 5

    E5 = 19.89 10⁻²⁶ /434.0 10⁻⁹

    E5 = 4.58 10⁻¹⁹ J

    E5 = 4.58 10⁻¹⁶ kJ

Calculate the wavelength (in nm) of the blue light emitted by a mercury lamp with a frequency of 6.88 × 1014 Hz. The speed of li
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: 430 nm.

Explanation:

The relation of wavelength and frequency is:

Formula used : \nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}

where,

\nu = frequency =6.88\times 10^{14}Hz

\lambda = wavelength  = ?

c = speed of light = 3.00\times 10^{8}m/s

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

6.88\times 10^{14}=\frac{3.00\times 10^{8}m/s}{\lambda}

\lambda=\frac{3.00\times 10^{8}m/s}{6.88\times 10^{14}}=0.43\times 10^{-6}m=430m        (1nm=10^{-9}m)

Thus the wavelength (in nm) of the blue light emitted by a mercury lamp is 430 nm.
