To find the energy difference between the two states of the iron atom that give rise to the K-alpha transition, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given data We are given the wavelength of the K-alpha line from iron, which is 193 picometers (pm). ### Step 2: Convert the wavelength to angstroms 1 picometer = \(10^{-10}\) angstroms. Therefore, we can convert 193 pm to angstroms: \[ ...
