The following wavelengths are found among the many radiations emitted by singly ionized helium: 24.30 nm, 25.63 nm, 102.5 nm, 320.4 nm. If we group the transitions in helium as we did in hydrogen by identifying the final state n0 and initial state n, to which series does each transition belong?

The first five energy levels of the hydrogen atom are at −13.6 eV, −3.4 eV,−1.51 eV, −0.85 eV, and -0.54 eV.

Sketch the spectrum you would expect to see at wavelengths from 400 nmto 700 nm. You do not need to use colour in your sketch, but you should provide an x-axiswith tickmarks and labels in nm, label the approximate red, green and blue regions, andlabel each dark line with its wavelength. Show your calculations of the wavelengths. (Hint:you should show three dark lines.)

Question 9. While most transition metals have work functions corresponding to photon frequencies that are larger (higher) than visible light, alkali and alkaline earth metals have low-energy work functions. For example, calcium has a work function of o = 4.3419×10-19 J. (a) What is the initial state n, for the hydrogen emission lines at visible wavelengths (i.e., those with n = 2) for the lowest-energy photon that would eject an electron from calcium? %3! (b) If the colors of the visible hydrogen emission lines (n; = 3 to n = 6) are red, green, blue and %3D violet, which colors are capable of ejecting the electrons from calcium? (c) The energy of the emitted photon you identified in part (a), is not identical to the workfunction of calcium. Therefore, the electron is ejected from the metal surface with some kinetic energy (i.e., energy is conserved in the photoelectric effect process). What would the velocity of the electron ejected from calcium (in meters per second)?

The energy levels of the Bohr model for the atom can be expressed mathematically as En -13.6 eV, where Z is the atomic number, and n is the quantum number. This model is reasonably accurate for hydrogen and for singly ionized helium. The photon associated with the transition of an electron from the ground state to the first excited state in singly ionized helium has a different wavelength than that associated with a similar transition in hydrogen. Which of the following correctly describes the wavelengths of these two photons in terms of the energy level diagrams for hydrogen and helium? The photon absorbed by hydrogen has a longer wavelength than that absorbed by helium, because the energy levels in the diagram for hydrogen are more closely spaced than in the diagram for helium. B The photon absorbed by hydrogen has a shorter wavelength than that absorbed by helium, because the energy levels in the diagram for hydrogen are more closely spaced than in the diagram for helium.
