Determine the end (final) value of n in a hydrogen atom transition, if the electron starts in n = 2 and the at?
Use the Rydberg Eqn: 1/ λ = R[1/n1^2 - 1/n2^2] Where λ is the wavelength of the light; R is the Rydberg constant: R = 1.09737x 10^7m-1 n1 and n2 are integers such that n1 < n2. For your problem there are several possibilities, but the only emission line is n2 = 2 (1/n2^2 =1/4) n1 = 1 (1/n1^2 =1); a typical absorption line would be n1 = 2, n2 = 6. Convert your λ from m to nm by × [1.00 × 109] nm. Then check your answer with those in Ref 3 [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rydberg_for... [2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rydberg_con...

Determine the end (final) value of n in a hydrogen atom transition?
Well, I would start out noting that E = (Z^2 Me e^4)/(8 E0^2 h^2) * (1/(n1)^2 - 1/(n2)^2) and solve for n2 not sure what level you are at, but if you are in Pchem now, you should be able to find this equation. For a hydrogen atom, Z = 1 Me is the mass of an electron e is the charge of an electron E0 is the vacuum permeability constant h is the Plancks constant n1 is the initial n level = 1 n2 is the final n level = your answer.

Determine the end (final) value of n in a hydrogen atom transition, if the electron starts in n = 2 and the at?
Use the Rydberg Equation: [1] 1/λ = R[1/(n1^2) -1/(n2^2)] Where λ is the wavelength in m of the light emitted (or absorbed); n1 and n2 are integers such that n1< n2 in this case n1 = 2 R is the Rydberg constant; R = 1.09737×10^7 m-1 [2] We are given the frequency ν = c/λ 1/λ = ν/c ν = 1.384×10^14 c = speed of light = 2.998×10^8 m s-1 Hence ν/c = R[1/(n1^2) -1/(n2^2)] ν/(c×R) = [1/(n1^2) -1/(n2^2)] Putting in values: 4.57×10^14/(2.998×10^8)×(1.09737×10^7) = 1/2^2 – 1/n2^2 0.139 = 0.25 -1/n2^2 1/n2^2 = 0.25 - 0.139 = 0.1111 n2^2 = 1/0.1111 = 9.00 n2 = 3 [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rydberg_for...

How many spectral lines are seen for the hydrogen atom when an electron jumps from n2=5 to n=1 in a visible region?
Visible spectrum range : 4000A to 7000APhoton energy range : 0.31eV to 0.177eVSo, all photons having energy between this range are visible to human eye.When a Hydrogen sample is excited to n=5, it will choose different paths to come into ground state. Considering all possible paths there can be 5 transitions in which visible photons can be emitted. So, there can be 5 lines in visible spectrum range. ( Other transitions which will not fall in visible range are ignored)

What is the angular momentum of an electron in bohr hydrogen atom whose energy is -0.544eV?
Energy = -13.6÷(n^2)=> -0.544= -13.6÷(n^2)=> n^2=25=> n=5Angular momentum(L) for an electron in n(th) orbit isL= nh/2 (pi)(pi=3.14 and h= plank’s constant= 6.626 × (10^(-34)) kg.m^2/s)Therefore, L = 5.28394411 × (10^(-34)).I hope this helps you !
What is the energy emitted when an electron jumps from second orbit to first orbit in a hydrogen atom?
Electrons in a hydrogen atom must be in one of the allowed energy levels. If an electron is in the first energy level, it must have exactly -13.6 eV of energy. If it is in the second energy level, it must have -3.4 eV of energy.Let's say the electron wants to jump from the first energy level, n = 1, to the second energy level n = 2. The second energy level has higher energy than the first, so to move from n = 1 to n = 2, the electron needs to gain energy. It needs to gain (-3.4) - (-13.6) = 10.2 eV of energy to make it up to the second energy level.The electron can gain the energy it needs by absorbing light. If the electron jumps from the second energy level down to the first energy level, it must give off some energy by emitting light. The atom absorbs or emits light in discrete packets called photons, and each photon has a definite energy. Only a photon with an energy of exactly 10.2 eV can be absorbed or emitted when the electron jumps between the n = 1 and n = 2 energy levels.The energy that a photon carries depends on its wavelength. Since the photons absorbed or emitted by electrons jumping between the n = 1 and n = 2 energy levels must have exactly 10.2 eV of energy, the light absorbed or emitted must have a definite wavelength. This wavelength can be found from the equationE = hc/l,where E is the energy of the photon (in eV), h is Planck's constant (4.14 x 10^-15 eV s) and c is the speed of light (3 x 10^8 m/s). Rearranging this equation to find the wavelength gives l = hc/E.A photon with an energy of 10.2 eV has a wavelength of 1.21 x 10^-7 m, in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum. So when an electron wants to jump from n = 1 to n = 2, it must absorb a photon of ultraviolet light. When an electron drops from n = 2 to n = 1, it emits a photon of ultraviolet light.The step from the second energy level to the third is much smaller. It takes only 1.89 eV of energy for this jump. It takes even less energy to jump from the third energy level to the fourth, and even less from the fourth to the fifth.What would happen if the electron gained enough energy to make it all the way to 0eV? The electron would then be free of the hydrogen atom. The atom would be missing an electron, and would become a hydrogen ion.The table below shows the first five energy levels of a hydrogen atom.Energy Level - EnergyEnergy Level 1 -13.6 eVEnergy Level 2 -3.4 eVEnergy Level 3 -1.51 eVEnergy Level 4 -0.85 eVEnergy Level 5 -0.54 eV
Why does hydrogen's emission spectrum have four lines if hydrogen only has one electron?
See when you go quantum, sentences like 'when energy is provided the electron goes to a higher energy level' makes no sense. Its all about probabilities. The electron of a single atom, may get excited to the first level, or the second level or any higher levels possible. And since this electron cannot stay in the higher energy level for more than a few nano seconds, it immediately comes down. Now in one second there are a billion nano seconds, so about a billion transistions are taking per second in one single atom. And so some transistions are more probable and some are less, but all will happen. Now imagine you have billions of atoms. So in one second, you have a total possibility of billion billion transistions right? :D. So now clearly you ll see all the transistions happening. its like when you toss a coin, its either heads or tails. But if you toss it enough no. of times, you will see 50 percent of the time heads and 50 percent of the time tails.
