Answer:
Explanation:
The formula for hydrogen atomic spectrum is as follows
energy of photon due to transition from higher orbit n₂ to n₁
![E=13.6 (\frac{1}{n_1^2 } - \frac{1}{n_2^2})eV](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%3D13.6%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7Bn_1%5E2%20%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7Bn_2%5E2%7D%29eV)
For layman series n₁ = 1 and n₂ = 2 , 3 , 4 , ... etc
energy of first line
![E_1=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{2 ^2})](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_1%3D13.6%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B1%5E2%20%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%20%5E2%7D%29)
10.2 eV
wavelength of photon = 12375 / 10.2 = 1213.2 A
energy of 2 nd line
![E_2=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{3 ^2})](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_2%3D13.6%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B1%5E2%20%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%20%5E2%7D%29)
= 12.08 eV
wavelength of photon = 12375 / 12.08 = 1024.4 A
energy of third line
![E_3=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{4 ^2})](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_3%3D13.6%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B1%5E2%20%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%20%5E2%7D%29)
12.75 e V
wavelength of photon = 12375 / 12.75 = 970.6 A
energy of fourth line
![E_4=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{5 ^2})](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_4%3D13.6%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B1%5E2%20%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B5%20%5E2%7D%29)
= 13.056 eV
wavelength of photon = 12375 / 13.05 = 948.3 A
energy of fifth line
![E_5=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{6 ^2})](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_5%3D13.6%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B1%5E2%20%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B6%20%5E2%7D%29)
13.22 eV
wavelength of photon = 12375 / 13.22 = 936.1 A
Answer:
X-rays travel through space faster than radio waves.
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillations of the electric and the magnetic field in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave.
All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum always at the same speed, the speed of light, whose value is:
![c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=c%3D3.0%5Ccdot%2010%5E8%20m%2Fs)
Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different types, according to their wavelength/frequency. From shortest to longest wavelength (and so, from highest to lowest frequency), we have:
Gamma rays
X rays
Ultraviolet
Visible light
Infrared radiation
Microwaves
Radio waves
Now we can analyze the 4 statements:
X-rays and radio waves are both forms of light, or electromagnetic radiation --> TRUE. They are both types of electromagnetic waves.
X-rays have higher frequency than radio waves. --> TRUE, as we can see from the table above.
X-rays have shorter wavelengths than radio waves. --> TRUE, as we can see from the table above.
X-rays travel through space faster than radio waves. --> FALSE: all electromagnetic waves travel in space at the same speed, the speed of light.
She can put chalk in vinegar as the vinegar will disintegrate the chalk chemically demonstrating chemical changes. But for physical changes she can break the chalk into small pieces by smashing it with something or her hand.
The inner planets are the planets before the asteroid belt. They are also closer to the Sun. The outer planets are the ones after the asteroid belt. <span />
