Question 1

Which of the following statements best explains why fireworks display different colors when ignited?

Accepted Answer

Each element emits a unique pattern of wavelengths of light when its atoms are excited, producing characteristic colors.

Question 2

A sodium atom is excited in a flame test. Which electron transition is responsible for the emission of visible light?

Question 12

Why do the 4s orbitals fill before the 3d orbitals in the periodic table?

Accepted Answer

The 4s orbital is lower in energy than the 3d orbital for most elements.

Question 13

A photon has a wavelength of $$500 nm. $$What is its energy in Joules? ($$h = 6.626 	imes 10$$^{-34}$$ J·s, c = 3.00$$ 	imes $$10^8 m/s)$$

Accepted Answer

$$E = \frac{6.626 	imes 10$$^{-34}$$ 	imes 3.00 	imes 10^8$}{500 	imes 10$$^{-9}$$} = 3.98 	imes 10$$^{-19}$$ J

Question 14
