The frequency of photons released in such transitions is approximately .
Explanation:
The Rydberg Equation gives the wavelength (in vacuum) of photons released when the electron of a hydrogen atom transitions from one main energy level to a lower one.
Let denote the wavelength of the photon released when measured in vacuum.
Let denote the Rydberg constant for hydrogen. .
Let and denote the principal quantum number of the initial and final main energy level of that electron. (Both and should be positive integers; .)
The Rydberg Equation gives the following relation:
.
Rearrange to obtain and expression for :
.
In this question, while . Therefore:
.
Note, that is equivalent to . That is: .
Look up the speed of light in vacuum: . Calculate the frequency of this photon:
.
Let represent Planck constant. The energy of a photon of wavelength would be .
Look up the Planck constant: . With a frequency of (,) the energy of each photon released in this transition would be:
For example, you are pushing a water bottle. The push is a force that is imbalance because there is no other force pushing the water back. So if you push the water bottle, it will move. When it moves, it is also call, "Changing position" because its location changed.
A solution of water and ethanol are miscible. Hence, they can only be separated by a process known as distillation. Distillation is the process in which two or more constituents in a mixture are separated based on there difference in boiling points. <u>The mixture is subjected to high heat and the one with the least boiling point distills/evaporates out first followed by the next least boiling point</u>.
<u>From the explanation above, it can be deduced that ethanol (with boiling point of 78°) will be distilled out while water remains in the boiling tube or container</u>.
