Use the Bohr model to address this question. When a hydrogen atom makes a transition from the 5 th energy level to the 2nd, counting the ground level as the first, A. What is the energy E of the emitted photon in electron volts?、
B. What is the wavelength in nanometers of the emitted photon?
C. What is the radius of the hydrogen atom in nanometers in its initial 5th energy level?

A. 2.82 eV

B. 439nm

C. 59.5 angstroms

Explanation:

A. To calculate the energy of the photon emitted you use the following formula:

    (1)

n1: final state = 5

n2: initial state = 2

Where the energy is electron volts. You replace the values of n1 and n2 in the equation (1):

B. The energy of the emitted photon is given by the following formula:

  (2)

h: Planck's constant = 6.62*10^{-34} kgm^2/s

c: speed of light = 3*10^8 m/s

λ: wavelength of the photon

You first convert the energy from eV to J:

Next, you use the equation (2) and solve for λ:

C. The radius of the orbit is given by:

  (3)

where ao is the Bohr's radius = 2.380 Angstroms

You use the equation (3) with n=5:

hence, the radius of the atom in its 5-th state is 59.5 anstrongs
