Assuming the wavelength for fluorescence is observed at 475 nm and the wavelength of the phosphorescence process occurs at 523 nm, find the energy released from 12.35 g of Calcium atoms. (Assume that there is 1 excited electron per calcium atom and every one of them relaxes via the processes above.) (Fluorescence occurs 2.45 times more frequently than phosphorescence)
