Answer:

Red light has the longest wavelength

Explanation:

Red light is emitted when a high energy state electron drops from high energy level 3 to low energy level 2. Red light has the longest wavelength and lowest energy. It is a know fact that the shorter the drop within energy levels, the lesser the energy.

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

In Haloarenes the C atom to which the X group is attached is SP2 hybridized thus it is become difficult to replace it by the Nucleophile. Since arenes and Vinyl halides are electron rich molecules due to presenceof n bonds, they repel Nucleophile attacking them.

According to the quantum-mechanical model for the hydrogen atom, which electron transition produces light with the longer wavele

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

The main task here is that there are some missing gaps in the above question that needs to be filled with the appropriate answers. So, we are just going to do rewrite the answer below as we indicate the missing gaps by underlining them and making them in bold format.

SO; In the quantum-mechanical model of the hydrogen atom.

As the n level increases. the energy increases and thus levels are closer to each other. Therefore, the transition 3p→2s would have a greater energy difference than the transition from 4p→3p.

$Energy \ and \ wavelength \ are \ inversely \ proportional , \ so \ the \ \mathbf{ 4p\to 3p} \ transition \ would$ $produce \ a \ longer \ wavelength.$
