Final answer:

The frequency of light emitted in the transition from the 148th orbit to the 139th orbit is 2.00 × 10^15 Hz. For the absorption of light, use the same formula with the given wavelength.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the frequency of light emitted in the transition from one orbit to another, we can use the formula:

frequency = (speed of light) / (wavelength)

First, we need to convert the given wavelength from nanometers to meters:

150 nm = 150 × 10-9 m

Then, we can plug this value into the formula:

frequency = (3.00 × 108 m/s) / (150 × 10-9 m) = 2.00 × 1015 Hz

Similarly, for the absorption of light, you can use the same formula with the given wavelength.

Answer:


f=3* 10^8* 64.90=19.4* 10^9 s^(-1)


f=3* 10^8*39.9537=119.8613* 10^8\ /sec

Step-by-step explanation:

for the transition from 148th orbit to 138th orbit

we know the formula


(1)/(\lambda )=R* \left ( (1)/(n^2_(final))-(1)/(n^2_(initial)) \right )

where R is Rydberg constant whose value is
1.0974* 10^7 /m

putting this value in equation


(1)/(\lambda )=1.0974* 10^7 \left ( (1)/(139^2)-(1)/(148^2) \right )


(1)/(\lambda )=64.9075


f=c\lambda


f=3* 10^8* 64.90=19.4* 10^9 s^(-1)

for the transition from 165th to 174th orbit

we know the formula


(1)/(\lambda )=R* \left ( (1)/(n^2_(final))-(1)/(n^2_(initial)) \right )

where R is Rydberg constant whose value is
1.0974* 10^7 /m

putting this value in equation


(1)/(\lambda )=1.0974* 10^7 \left ( (1)/(165^2)-(1)/(174^2) \right )


(1)/(\lambda )=39.95377


f=c\lambda


f=3* 10^8*39.9537=119.8613* 10^8\ /sec
