Accepted Answer

$$E = h v$$

Question 4

A laser emits light with a frequency of $$4.69 	imes 10$$^{14}$$\ \mathrm{s}^{-1}. $$What is the energy of one photon of this radiation? ($$h = 6.626 	imes 10$$^{-34}$$\ \mathrm{J\cdot s})$$

Accepted Answer

$$3.11 	imes 10$$^{-19}$$\ \mathrm{J}$$

Question 5

Which phenomenon provided evidence that light behaves as both a wave and a particle?

Accepted Answer

Photoelectric effect

Question 6

According to the Bohr model, what happens when an electron in a hydrogen atom transitions from $$n=3 to$$ $$n=2$$?

Accepted Answer

A photon is emitted and the atom loses energy.

Question 7

Which equation is used to calculate the wavelength of light emitted during an electron transition in hydrogen according to the Rydberg formula?

Accepted Answer

$$\dfrac{1}{\lambda} = R_H \left( \dfrac{1}{n_f^2$} - \dfrac{1}{n_i^2$} \right)$$

Question 8

An electron in a hydrogen atom moves from $$n=6 to$$ $$n=2. $$What is the sign of the energy change ($$\Delta E) $$and what does it indicate?

Accepted Answer

$$\Delta E is $$negative; energy is emitted as a photon.
