=Spectral lines are produced by transitions of electrons within atoms or ions. As the electrons move closer to or farther from the nucleus of an atom (or of an ion), energy in the form of light (or other radiation) is emitted or absorbed.…
<span>(a) what is the average volume (in cubic meters) required for each iron atom
For this case, the density of Iron would be </span>7.87g/cm³
<span>
V = 9.27 x 10^-26 kg / </span>7.87g/cm<span>³ ( 1 kg / 1000 g)
</span>V = 1.18 x 10-23 cm³<span>
(b) what is the distance (in meters) between the centers of adjacent atoms?
We assume the atoms as cube, so we use the volume of the cube to calculate the distance of the atoms.
V = </span>1.18 x 10-23 cm<span>³ = s</span>³
s = 2.28 x 10^-8 cm
Li because its charge is +1.
