AI Generated Solution

To find the frequency of radiation emitted when an atom transitions from an upper energy level to a lower energy level, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Energy Difference We are given the energy difference between two energy levels in an atom, which is 2.3 eV. ### Step 2: Convert Electron Volts to Joules We need to convert the energy from electron volts (eV) to joules (J) because the formula we will use requires energy in joules. The conversion factor is: 1 eV = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ J. ...
