Use the idea of energy conservation to explain why the hydrogen atom only emits light of specific wavelengths.
What is it about the structure of the hydrogen atom that leads to this?
a)
energy of hydrogen atom when electron is in nth orbit,
En = -13.6 eV/n^2
whenever electron jumps from jigher energy stationary state to lower energy stationary state,
it emits a photon with energy equal to difference of the two energy states.
E_photon = -13.6 eV*(1/ni^2 - 1/nf^2)
E_photn = 13.6eV*(1/nf^2 - 1/ni^2) (here ni > nf)
b) electron revolve around the nucleus in a particular ststaionary states in which the angular momentum
of the electrion is conserved.
Ln = n*h/(2*pi)
this conservation of angular momentum is led to the hydrogen atom only emits light of specific wavelengths.

9. An excited hydrogen atom emits light with a frequency of 1.141 x 10 HZ energy level for which n=4. In what principal quantum level did the electron begin
An excited hydrogen atom emits light with a wavelength of 397.2 nm to reach the energy level for which n = 2. In which principal quantum level did the electron begin? It would be very helpful if the last step could be over explained, thats where my answer is going wrong.
1. A hydrogen atom with its electron in the n = 5 energy level emits a photon of IR light. (i)[3 marks] Calculate the change in energy of the atom and (ii) [2 marks] Calculate the wavelength (in nm) of the photon.
"If a hydrogen atom emits a photon of light with a wavelength of 102.6 nm when an electron returns to n = 1 , what n-value was the atom in originally?"
Hydrogen atom. a. Given that the energy of the hydrogen atom depends only on the principle quantum number n, how many orbitals with a principle quantum number of n=4 are degenerate in energy? Use the quantum numbers associated with the solutions to the Schrödinger equation. (10 pts) b. List the quantum numbers of all orbitals that are degenerate in energy with the n=3, 1=2, m=-1 orbital. You may list in groups or a table to reduce the amount of repetitive...

what is the energy of light that must be absorbed by a hydrogen atom to transition an electron from n=3 to n=6
4. An atom emits a photon with a wavelength of 872 nm when its electron moves from the n = 5 energy level to the n = 4 energy level. From this fact, what can you can conclude? (Hint: drawing a diagram may be helpful) (A) This atom must emit lower energy light than the 872 nm light when moving from the n= 5 energy level to the n= 1 energy level (B) This atom's electron can transition from the...
Determine the circumference of the second Bohr orbit of the Hydrogen atom. Use this to determine the wavelength of the electron in this orbit; the electron's wave must consist of an integral number of wavelengths about its orbit's circumference (Why?). orbit circumference = n wavelength Finally, determine the velocity v of the electron in this orbit using de Broglie's prescription for the wavelength of matter waves. wavelength = h / mv What percentage of the speed of light is this...
8. An exited hydrogen atom emits a photon having a wavelength of 388.9049 nm and the electron relaxes down to the n=2 level. What was the initial higher energy level of the electron? - hc 388.9049x10 nm -9 = -2.184x102 (12)
