Ionization energy is the minimum energy required to remove an electron from a ground state atom. According to the relationship developed by Neils Bohr, the total energy of an electron in a stable orbit of quantum number n is equal to En=-[Z2/n2].

What is the longest radiation wavelength that can be used to ionize the ground state hydrogen atom?

The longest radiation wavelength that can ionize the ground state hydrogen atom is in the ultraviolet range, around 91.2 nm. This is known as the Lyman limit, where the photon energy is just enough to ionize hydrogen by freeing the electron from its bound state.

The energy required to ionize lithium is 520 What minimum frequency of light is required to ionize lithium?

To calculate the minimum frequency of light required to ionize lithium, we can use the formula E = hf, where: E = energy required to ionize lithium (520 J) h = Planck's constant (6.63 x 10^-34 J*s) f = frequency of light Rearranging the formula to solve for f gives: f = E / h. Plugging in the values, we have f = 520 / 6.63 x 10^-34 ≈ 7.83 x 10^15 Hz. Therefore, a minimum frequency of around 7.83 x 10^15 Hz is required to ionize lithium.

Does the gas in a bulb affect a bulb's brightness?

Yes, coupled with the amount of energy that is imparted to it. The more energy that is applied, the brighter the light until you reach the full saturation level. Different gasses ionize and emit their photons at different energy levels and wavelengths depending on the gas being used. For instance, it takes less energy to ionize Neon than it does to ionize Argon.
