Blocks of magnesium is used to prevent iron corrosion.
This way of prevention is called sacrificial protection.

Calculate the wavelength for the transition from n = 4 to n = 2, and state the name given to the spectroscopic series to which t

finlep [7]

Answer:

The wavelength for the transition from n = 4 to n = 2 is 486nm and the name name given to the spectroscopic series belongs to The Balmer series.

Explanation

lets calculate -

Rydberg equation- $\frac{1}{\pi } =R(\frac{1}{n_1^2} -\frac{1}{n_2^2})$

where , $\pi$ is wavelength , R is Rydberg constant ( $1.097\times10^7$ ), $n_1$ and $n_2$ are the quantum numbers of the energy levels. (where $n_1=2 , n_2=4$ )
