To solve the problem of determining the wavelength of the spectral line emitted when an electron in a hydrogen atom transitions from an energy level of -1.51 eV to the ground level, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the energy levels In a hydrogen atom, the ground state energy level (n=1) is given by: \[ E_1 = -13.6 \, \text{eV} \] The initial energy level (n=2, corresponding to -1.51 eV) is: \[ E_2 = -1.51 \, \text{eV} \] ...
