1. Bohr's Model can be used to find the wavelengths of the photons in the absorption or emission spectrum of hydrogen atom. Using that model, find the wavelengths of the 5→2, 4-→2, 3-→2 and 2->1 transitions. Specify the colour associated with these wavelengths when possible. To determine the colours, use tables. If the wavelength is not part of the visible spectrum, specify if it is ultraviolet or infrared.

How do the allowed orbits for electrons in atoms differ from the allowed orbits for planets around the sun? Explain how the correspondence principle applies here.
What is the binding energy in eV of electrons in magnesium, if the longest-wavelength photon that can eject electrons is 337 nm?
Hydrogen gas can only absorb EM radiation that has an energy corresponding to a transition in the atom, just as it can only emit these discrete energies. When a spectrum is taken of the solar corona, in which a broad range of EM wavelengths are passed through very hot hydrogen gas, the absorption spectrum shows all the features of the emission spectrum. But when such EM radiation passes through room-temperature hydrogen gas, only the Lyman series is absorbed. Explain the difference.
Explain how Bohr's rule for the quantization of electron orbital angular momentum differs from the actual rule.
