Applying the bohr model to a triply ionized beryllium atom (be3+,z=4), find the shortest wavelength of the lyman series for be3+.

Explanation:

The Bohr model predicts energy with values:

with z the atomic number, h the Planck,s constant, c is the speed of light and v the frequency.

The Lyman series is given by

R=1.097*10^7m^-1

That is, for transition between n>=2 and n=1. The shortest wavelength is obtained for n=infinity.

Hence, by replacing we have (h=4.13*10^{-15}eV , c=3*10^8 m/s ):

hope this helps!!

waves moving from a fast medium to a slow medium will experience a reflection as light travels more slowly than red light. total internal reflection occurs when the critical angle is.

come closer and become far apart and become steam/gas
