Draw a schematic of the hydrogen atom with the single proton in the nucleus, and the n=1, n=2, n=3, and n=4 energy level options
for the electron. Put the electron in the lowest energy configuration.
1 answer:
Explanation:
According to Bohr's postulates, the electron in the present in the lower energy level can absorb energy and exits to higher energy level. Also, when this electron returns back to its orbit, it emits some energy.
Since the hydrogen consists of 1 electron and 1 proton. The lowest energy configuration of the hydrogen is when n =1 or, when the electron is present in the K-shell or the ground state.
The possible transition for the electron given in the question is :
n = 2, 3 and 4
The schematic diagram of the hydrogen atom consisting of these four quantum levels in which the electron can jump (Absorption) and comeback to from these energy levels (emission) .

Answer: Mixture
Explanation:
Element is a pure substance which is composed of atoms of similar elements.
Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.
Mixture is a substance which has two or more components which do not combine chemically and do not have any fixed ratio in which they are present. Example: Air which conatins a mixture of ,
,
and
