To solve the problem, we need to determine the orbit to which the electron in a hydrogen atom is raised when it absorbs an energy of 12.09 eV, and then calculate the wavelengths of the emitted radiations as the electron drops back to the ground state. ### Step 1: Determine the final energy level The energy levels of a hydrogen atom are given by the formula: \[ E_n = -\frac{13.6 \text{ eV}}{n^2} \] where \( n \) is the principal quantum number (the energy level). 1. For \( n = 1 \): ...
