Answer:

The transition with the greatest distance is 5p → 1s, which is n = 5 going to n = 1. This means this transition also has the largest energy and frequency. Therefore, the electron transition that produces light of the highest frequency in the hydrogen atom is a. 5p → 1s.

Explanation:

The energy requirement order for excitation for different transitions is as follows. n→∏* transition requires lowest energy while σ→σ* requires highest amount of energy

Which statement about atmospheric pressure is false?

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

D) With an increase in altitude, atmospheric pressure increases as well.

Explanation:

Generally when altitude increases, the value of pressure decreases. This shows that pressure is inversely proportional to altitude. For example, the higher the altitude, the lower the pressure and vice versa. At very high altitude, the number of molecules of air are smaller than the number of moles of air at very low altitude. Thus, the higher the altitude, the lower the atmospheric pressure and the lower the altitude, the higher the atmospheric pressure. Therefore, option (D) is false.

What is the kinetic energy of the emitted electrons when cesium is exposed to UV rays of frequency 1.0×1015Hz?

RideAnS [48]

The kinetic energy of the emitted electrons of cesium when it is exposed to UV rays of frequency $1.0 \times {10^{15}}\;{\text{Hz}}$ is $\boxed{6.63 \times {{10}^{ - 19}}\;{\text{J}}}$

Further Explanation:

Photoelectric effect:

When light is made to fall on any substance, electrons are emitted from it. This is known as the photoelectric effect and the emitted electrons are called photoelectrons. The electrons are emitted because of the transference of energy from light to the electrons.

Cesium is a member of the alkali metal group so it is highly reactive and shows photoelectric effect to the maximum extent. It can remove its electron so easily because of its atomic size. Due to large atomic size of cesium, its outermost electrons are held very less tightly to the nucleus and therefore removed easily.

According to the Planck-Einstein equation, the energy is proportional to the frequency and is expressed as follows:

${\mathbf{E=h\nu }}$ ......(1)

Here,

${\text{E}}$ is the energy.

$h$ is the Plank’s constant.

$\nu$ is the frequency.

The frequency of UV rays is $1.0 \times {10^{15}}\;{\text{Hz}}$ or $1.0 \times {10^{15}}\;{{\text{s}}^{ - 1}}$

The value of Planck’s constant is $6.626 \times {10^{ - 34}}\;{\text{J}}\cdot{\text{s}}$ .

Substitute these values in equation (1)

$\begin{aligned}{\text{E}}&=\left( {6.626 \times {{10}^{ - 34}}\;{\text{J}}\cdot{\text{s}}}\right)\left( {1.0 \times {{10}^{15}}\;{{\text{s}}^{ - 1}}}\right)\\&=6.63\times {10^{ - 19}}\;{\text{J}}\\\end{aligned}$

But when electrons are ejected out from the surface of the substance, all of its energy is considered as kinetic energy.

So the kinetic energy of the electrons is ${\mathbf{6}}{\mathbf{.63 \times 1}}{{\mathbf{0}}^{{\mathbf{ - 19}}}}\;{\mathbf{J}}$ .
