What is the energy of a photon that would move an electon from level 2 to level 5?
Use this formula. Hydrogen's Z number is 1.
Frequency = (3.29 X 1015 Hz) * Z2 * (1/Nf2 - 1/Ni2)
Frequency = (3.29 X 1015 Hz) * 12 * (1/52 - 1/12)
= - 3.16 X 1015 Hertz
------------------------------can discard negative sign as this is usually used to find drops in orbital level
What else can I help you with?
Is light emitted when an electron makes a transition to a lower energy level?
No, as energy is absorbed. When the reverse happens, the higher state to lower state, the electron is returning to its lower energy level ground state and energy is released in the form of a photon.
Which is the lowest possible energy state for a photon?
The lowest possible energy state for a photon is when it has no energy, which corresponds to a frequency of zero.
How is it possible for an electron go from the 3rd to the 4th energy level?
It is possible if the electron absorbs energy, for example, from a photon.
If the photon has a frequency of 4 x 1015 Hz how did the energy of the electron change?
If the change in energy of electron is totally exhibited as a photon then the energy = h times frequency. h = 6.626 x 10 to -34 J s Simply multiply h and frequency you would get the energy in joule
How does the energy of three photons of blue light compare with that of one photon of blue light from the same source?
If the color (frequency, wavelength) of each is the same, then each photon carries the same amount of energy. Three of them carry three times the energy that one of them carries.
What is the wavelength of a photon whose energy is twice that of a photon with a 580 nm wavelength?
Since the energy of a photon is inversely proportional to its wavelength, for a photon with double the energy of a 580 nm photon, its wavelength would be half that of the 580 nm photon. Therefore, the wavelength of the photon with twice the energy would be 290 nm.
According to Bohr's theory an excited atom would?
radiate energy
Which transition could represent an atom that emits a photon with 10.2 of energy?
10.2 eV ?? En = 13.6(1 - 1/n2) So. a transition from the second energy level to ground state seems indicated if you mean electron volts. ( eV ) En = 13.6(1 - 1/22) En = 13.6(3/4) = 10.2 eV =======
Is light emitted when an electron makes a transition to a lower energy level?
No, as energy is absorbed. When the reverse happens, the higher state to lower state, the electron is returning to its lower energy level ground state and energy is released in the form of a photon.
Which eqution would you use to calculate the energy of photon?
You would use the equation E=hf, where E represents the energy of the photon, h is Planck's constant, and f is the frequency of the photon.
What powers Star Wars blasters?
The laser that is shot out of a blaster is powered by a gaseous substance. It worked by introducing the energy to a medium. Most of the gas that was used was Tibanna Gas. When an atom of the medium was exited by the energy source the electrons that were available would transfer or "jump" to another, higher energy level. When they calmed down and returned to their original energy level a photon was released. The photon is what we would call the "laser beam". And there you have it.
Which is the lowest possible energy state for a photon?
The lowest possible energy state for a photon is when it has no energy, which corresponds to a frequency of zero.
If a certain fluorescing dye was2 emit a photon with an energy of 4.1x10-19J would this a suitable candidate for a light stick would this photon then be the same as the photon of a hydrogen atom?
no
How the wavelengths of light emitted by an atom provide information about electron energy levels?
First, calculate the energy of the photon by using the wave length and then see which the energy differences between electon levels. If it is equal, then it is the right transition The energy of a photon is proportional to its frequency
Are sound waves in solar energy?
No, sound wave is translating wave of the matter. The solar energy is the wave carried by photon which is an energy (non-matter). There is no way a sound wave would be carried in the stream of photon.
Which color wavelengths would contain the most photon energy?
Red color
What is the physical significance of planks constant?
Planck's Constant (abbreviated as 'h'), when first "discovered," was found to be the ratio of the energy of an individual photon to the frequency of that photon's light. In other words, the energy of a photon is equal to h times the photon's frequency. It has since been found that h fits into a wide variety of formula that allow us to understand the Universe we happen to live in. Without this constant, a lot of our Universe would be incomprehensible.
