Answer:

Hope this helps

Explanation:

Potential energy diagrams represent the energy transfer in chemical reactions in a diagram called a potential energy graph and/or a reaction progress curve. A potential energy diagram shows the adjustment in potential energy of a system as reactants are changed.

Calculate the wavelength, in nanometers, of the light emitted by a hydrogen atom when its electron falls from the n = 7 to the n

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The wavelength of the light emitted by a hydrogen atom for the given transition is 2166 nm.

Explanation:

The energy of nth energy levels of the H atom is given as:

$E_n = -2.18 \times 10^{-18} \times \frac{1}{n^2} J$

Energy of the seventh energy level = $E_7$

$E_7=-2.18 \times 10^{-18} \times \frac{1}{7^2} J$

$E_7=-2.18 \times 10^{-18} \times \frac{1}{7^2} J=-4.4490\times 10^{-20} J$

Energy of the seventh energy level = $E_4$

$E_4=-2.18 \times 10^{-18} \times \frac{1}{4^2} J$

$E_4=-2.18 \times 10^{-18} \times \frac{1}{16} J=-1.3625\times 10^{-19} J$

Energy of the light emitted will be equal to the energy difference of the both levels.

$E=E_7-E_4=-4.4490\times 10^{-20} J-(-1.3625\times 10^{-19} J)$

$E=9.176\times 10^{-20} J$

Wavelength corresponding to energy E can be calculated by using Planck's equation:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }$

$\lambda =\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34} Js\times 3\times 10^8 m/s}{9.176\times 10^{-20} J}=2.166\times 10^{-6} m=2166 nm$

The wavelength of the light emitted by a hydrogen atom for the given transition is 2166 nm.

What do the Roman numerals in a cation's name indicate?

Agata [3.3K]

The Roman numerals in a cation's name indicate: THE POSITIVE CHARGE ON THE CATION

Cations are metallic atoms that loosely hold it electrons, making it easy to lose electrons.

The Roman numerals in a cation's name not only indicates the charge on the cation but it makes it easier to distinguish cations that share the same metal name.
