An electron in the hydrogen atom makes a transition from an energy state of principal quantum number ni to the n = 2 state. If t
topjm [15]

Answer:

\boxed{3}

Explanation:

The Rydberg equation gives the wavelength λ for the transitions:

\dfrac{1}{\lambda} = R \left ( \dfrac{1}{n_{i}^{2}} - \dfrac{1}{n_{f}^{2}} \right )

where

R= the Rydberg constant (1.0974 ×10⁷ m⁻¹) and

\text{$n_{i}$ and $n_{f}$ are the numbers of the energy levels}

Data:

n_{f} = 2

λ = 657 nm

Calculation:  

\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{1}{657 \times 10^{-9}} & = & 1.0974 \times 10^{7}\left ( \dfrac{1}{2^{2}} - \dfrac{1}{n_{f}^{2}} \right )\\\\1.522 \times 10^{6} &= &1.0974\times10^{7}\left(\dfrac{1}{4} - \dfrac{1}{n_{f}^{2}} \right )\\\\0.1387 & = &\dfrac{1}{4} - \dfrac{1}{n_{f}^{2}} \\\\-0.1113 & = & -\dfrac{1}{n_{f}^{2}} \\\\n_{f}^{2} & = & \dfrac{1}{0.1113}\\\\n_{f}^{2} & = & 8.98\\n_{f} & = & 2.997 \approx \mathbf{3}\\\end{array}\\\text{The value of $n_{i}$ is }\boxed{\mathbf{3}}

2. Calculate the atomic mass of an element that has two isotopes, each with 50.00% abundance. One isotope has a mass of 63.00 am
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The atomic mass of element is 65.5 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Abundance of X-63 = 50.000%

Atomic mass of  X-63 = 63.00 amu

Atomic mass of X-68 = 68.00 amu

Atomic mass of element = ?

Solution:

Abundance of X-68 = 100-50 = 50%

Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass  = (50×63)+(50×68) /100

Average atomic mass =  3150 + 3400 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 6550 / 100

Average atomic mass = 65.5 amu.

The atomic mass of element is 65.5 amu.

A gas cylinder is filled with argon at a pressure of 177 atm and 25°C. What is the gas pressure when the temperature of the cyli
Elena L [17]

277.79 atm is the calculated gas pressure.

The ideal gas is a fictitious concept used to study how real gases behave by comparing them to their deviations. The pressure-temperature rules are followed by an ideal gas.

177 atm is the initial pressure. The starting temperature is 298 K (25 °C = 25 + 273 °C).

195°C = 195+273

= 468K is the final temperature.

The pressure temperature relation illustrated below can be used to get the final pressure.

P1/T1 = P2/T1

= P1T2/T1

= 177 atm 468 K /298 K

= 277.97 atm

The final pressure is therefore 277.97 atm.

What is the electron configuration for a neutral atom of fluorine.
zavuch27 [327]

Answer and Explanation: The full ground-state electron configuration for a fluorine atom is 1s2, 2s2, 2p5. We determine this by first identifying the number of electrons in a fluorine atom. If the atom is neutral, it will have nine electrons to match the nine protons int he fluorine nucleus
