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.
