QUESTION 10 Which of these expressions would yield the wavelength of light in meters emitted when an electron drops from orbit n = 3 to n = 2 in a Bohr hydrogen atom? Given h = 4.14 x 10-15 eVs and c = 3.00 x 108 m/s.     a. hc/1.89   b. 1.89 x h x c   c. 1.89/hxc   d. (1.51 + 3.4)/hc   e. hc/3.4
With no magnetic field, the spectral line representing the transition from the 2P1/2 state to the 2S1/2 state in sodium has the wavelength 589.76 nm (see Figure). This is one of the two strong yellow lines in sodium. Calculate the difference in wavelength between the shortest and longest wavelength between these two states when placed in a magnetic field of 2.50 T.
