Cevap

The wavelength of the emitted photon is 4.85×107 m4.85 \times 10^{-7}\text{ m}.
The energy of the emitted photon is given by ΔE=0.85 eV(3.40 eV)=2.55 eV\Delta E = -0.85\text{ eV} - (-3.40\text{ eV}) = 2.55\text{ eV}. Converting to Joules gives 2.55×1.6×1019 J=4.08×1019 J2.55 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\text{ J} = 4.08 \times 10^{-19}\text{ J}. Substituting into λ=hcΔE\lambda = \frac{hc}{\Delta E} yields λ=6.6×1034×3.0×1084.08×1019=4.85×107 m\lambda = \frac{6.6 \times 10^{-34} \times 3.0 \times 10^8}{4.08 \times 10^{-19}} = 4.85 \times 10^{-7}\text{ m}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the energy difference between the initial and final states
ΔE=EiEf=0.85 eV(3.40 eV)=2.55 eV\Delta E = E_i - E_f = -0.85\text{ eV} - (-3.40\text{ eV}) = 2.55\text{ eV}
The energy of the emitted photon equals the energy difference between the two levels.
2
Convert the energy difference from electron-volts to Joules
ΔE=2.55×1.6×1019 J=4.08×1019 J\Delta E = 2.55 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\text{ J} = 4.08 \times 10^{-19}\text{ J}
Standard SI units are required for calculations involving Planck's constant.
3
Calculate photon wavelength using λ=hcΔE\lambda = \frac{hc}{\Delta E}
λ=(6.6×1034 Js)(3.0×108 m/s)4.08×1019 J=4.85×107 m\lambda = \frac{(6.6 \times 10^{-34}\text{ J}\cdot\text{s})(3.0 \times 10^8\text{ m/s})}{4.08 \times 10^{-19}\text{ J}} = 4.85 \times 10^{-7}\text{ m}
Relating photon energy to wavelength using Planck's constant and speed of light.
