Question

Calculate the energy change associated with the transition from n=4 to n=1 in the

hydrogen atom.

A) + 3. 55 10-18 J Absorption

B) +2. 04 x 10-18) Emmision

C)-3. 55 x 10-18) Absorption

D) -2. 04 x 10-18] Emmision

Answer 1

D) -2.04 x 10^-18 Emission
Is the correct answer.

Answer 2

Answer: D) -2.04 x
`10^(-18)` , Emission

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Bohr's equation for energy produced from a change in orbital levels.
`-2.178*10^(-18) ((1^(2))/(n_(final)^(2) ) - (1^(2) )/(n_(initial) ^(2) ) )`
`=E`

Substitute and you will get your answer!
