Kα X-ray lines are emitted from a target with atomic number Z when an electron jumps down from n = 2 to n = 1 state. If I use the approximate formula for the electron energy levels En = -(Z-1)2(13.6)/n2 eV, I can derive Moseley’s law √f = a(Z−b). What are the values of the constants a and b? A) a = 4.96*107 Hz1/2, b = 0                    B) a = 4.96*107 Hz1/2, b = 1                    C) a = 1.24*1017 Hz1/2, b = 1    D) a = 1.24*1017 Hz1/2, b = 0                  E) none of these.
The light observed that is emitted by a hydrogen atom is explained by a simple model of its structure with one proton in its nucleus and an electron bound to it, but only with internal energies of the atom  satisfying EH=−RH/n2EH=−RH/n2 where RHRH is the Rydberg constant and nn is an integer such as 1, 2, 3 ... and so on.  When a hydrogen atom in an excited state emits light, the photon carries away energy and the atom goes into a lower energy state.  Be careful about units.  The Rydberg constant in eV is  13.605693009 eV   That would be multiplied by the charge on the electron 1.602× 10-19 C to give  2.18× 10-18  J A photon with this energy would have a frequency f such that E=hf.  Its wavelength would be λ = c/f = hc/E.  Sometimes it is handy to measure the Rydberg constant in units of 1/length for this reason.  You may see it given as 109737 cm-1 if you search the web, so be aware that's not joules. The following questions are intended to help you understand the connection between…
A hydrogen atom is excited from its ground state to the state with n= 4. (a) How much energy must be absorbed by the atom? Consider the photon energies that can be emitted by the atom as it de-excites to the ground state in the several possible ways. (b) How many different energies are possible; what are the (c) highest, (d) second highest, (e) third highest, (f) lowest, (g) second lowest, and (h) third lowest energies?
