an 18- ev photon is absorbed by a searsium atom in its ground level. as the atom returns to its ground level, what possible energies can the emitted photons have? assume that there can be transitions between all pairs of levels. give answers in as

Respuesta :

energy of the photon = 18 ev

energy of the atom after it absorbs the photon,

=(-20 +18) ev = -2ev

the electron moves from level n=1 to n=4.

possible energies of the emitted photons: 3.0 ev, 5.0 ev, 8.0 ev, 10 ev, 15 ev, 18 ev

An electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle that can be both sure to an atom or free.

An electron that is sure to an atom is one of the 3 number one types of particles inside the atom -- the opposite  are protons and neutrons. Collectively, electrons, protons and neutrons form an atom's nucleus.

The hydrogen atom, as an example, has simply one electron and one proton. The uranium atom, alternatively, has 92 protons, and therefore, 92 electrons.
