Mercury’s atomic emission spectrum is shown below. Estimate the wavelength of the orange line. What is its frequency? What is th

lions [1.4K]

The wavelength of the orange line is 610 nm, the frequency of this emission is 4.92 x 10¹⁴ Hz and the energy of the emitted photon corresponding to this orange line is 3.26 x 10⁻¹⁹ J.

"Your question is not complete, it seems to be missing the diagram of the emission spectrum"

the diagram of the emission spectrum has been added.

From the given chart;

The wavelength of the atomic emission corresponding to the orange line is 610 nm = 610 x 10⁻⁹ m

The frequency of this emission is calculated as follows;

c = fλ

where;

c is the speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
f is the frequency of the wave
λ is the wavelength

$f = \frac{c}{\lambda } \\\\f = \frac{3\times 10^8}{610 \times 10^{-9}} \\\\f = 4.92 \times 10^{14} \ Hz$

The energy of the emitted photon corresponding to the orange line is calculated as follows;

E = hf

where;

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js

E = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴) x (4.92 x 10¹⁴)

E = 3.26 x 10⁻¹⁹ J.

Thus, the wavelength of the orange line is 610 nm, the frequency of this emission is 4.92 x 10¹⁴ Hz and the energy of the emitted photon corresponding to this orange line is 3.26 x 10⁻¹⁹ J.
