The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of calculating the wavelength and energy of radiation emitted for the electronic transition from infinity to the stationary state one of the hydrogen atom, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the transition states In this case, the transition is from infinity (n2 = ∞) to the first stationary state (n1 = 1) of the hydrogen atom. ### Step 2: Use the Rydberg formula for wavelength The Rydberg formula for the wavelength of emitted radiation is given by: \[ \frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left( \frac{1}{n_1^2} - \frac{1}{n_2^2} \right) \] Where: - \(\lambda\) is the wavelength, - \(R\) is the Rydberg constant (\(1.09678 \times 10^7 \, \text{m}^{-1}\)), - \(n_1\) is the final state (1), - \(n_2\) is the initial state (∞). ### Step 3: Substitute the values into the formula Substituting \(n_1 = 1\) and \(n_2 = \infty\): \[ \frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left( \frac{1}{1^2} - \frac{1}{\infty^2} \right) \] Since \(\frac{1}{\infty^2} = 0\), the equation simplifies to: \[ \frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left( 1 - 0 \right) = R \] Thus, \[ \lambda = \frac{1}{R} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the wavelength Now, substituting the value of \(R\): \[ \lambda = \frac{1}{1.09678 \times 10^7} \approx 9.11 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{m} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the energy of the emitted radiation The energy of the emitted radiation can be calculated using the formula: \[ E = h \nu \] Where: - \(E\) is the energy, - \(h\) is Planck's constant (\(6.626 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{J s}\)), - \(\nu\) is the frequency. The frequency \(\nu\) can be calculated using the speed of light \(c\) and the wavelength \(\lambda\): \[ \nu = \frac{c}{\lambda} \] Substituting the values: \[ c = 3 \times 10^8 \, \text{m/s} \] \[ \nu = \frac{3 \times 10^8}{9.11 \times 10^{-8}} \approx 3.29 \times 10^{15} \, \text{Hz} \] ### Step 6: Calculate the energy Now substituting \(\nu\) into the energy formula: \[ E = h \nu = (6.626 \times 10^{-34}) \times (3.29 \times 10^{15}) \approx 2.17 \times 10^{-18} \, \text{J} \] ### Final Results - Wavelength \(\lambda \approx 9.11 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{m}\) - Energy \(E \approx 2.17 \times 10^{-18} \, \text{J}\) ---
