Determine the wavelength of photon emitted when an electron moves from n = 2 orbit to n = 1 orbit in a gold atom. If Z is the atomic number, and for gold Z = 79. Also, by how much energy will the bombarding electrons excite the gold atom to radiate this emission line?
Be sure to answer all parts.
Consider the following energy levels of a hypothetical atom:
E4-2.51 × 10-19 J
E3-5.01 10-19 J
E2 -1.25 x 10-18 J
E₁-1.85 × 10-18 J
(a) What is the wavelength of the photon needed to excite an electron from E₁ to E4?
x 10
(b) What is the energy (in joules) a photon must have in order to excite an electron from E₂ to E3?
x 10
m
x 10

(c) When an electron drops from the E3 level to the E₁ level, the atom is said to undergo emission.
Calculate the wavelength of the photon emitted in this process.
