Larger molecules will move slower and smaller molecules will move faster. Did this answer your question?
Answer:
- The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the third excited state is -1.153 eV
- The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the fourth excited state is -1.181 eV
Explanation:
Given;
Energy of electron in ground state (n = 1 ) = 1.23 eV
E₁ = 1.23 eV
Eₙ = E₁ /n²
where;
E₁ is the energy of the electron in ground state
n is the energy level,
For third excited state, n = 4
E₄ = E₁ /4²
E₄ = (1.23 eV) / 16
E₄ = 0.077 eV
Change in energy level, = E₄ - E₁ = 0.077 eV - 1.23 eV = -1.153 eV
The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the third excited state is -1.153 eV
For fourth excited state, n = 5
E₅ = E₁ /5²
E₄ = (1.23 eV) / 25
E₄ = 0.049 eV
Change in energy level, = E₅ - E₁ = 0.049 eV - 1.23 eV = -1.181 eV
The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the fourth excited state is -1.181 eV
Answer:
In the picture.
