Question

Calculate the energy and frequency of the radiation emitted when an electron jumps from n = 3 to n = 2 in a hydrogen atom.

Long Answer

Solution

We have `bar(v) = 109766 [1/n_i^2 - 1/n_f^2]`

Given, ni = 3 and nf =2

ΔE = `hcbar(v) = 109677 [1/n_i^2 - 1/n_f^2]`

ΔE = `- 3.052 xx 10^-19` J

v = `(ΔE)/h -= 4.606 xx 10^16` Hz
