Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The wavelength of photons emitted by the given element is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
When light passes through the prism, it separates into different colors of light with different frequencies. The pattern of these different lines is termed as atomic emission spectrum.
Answer to Problem 12STP
The wavelength of photons emitted by the given element is 580 nm.
Explanation of Solution
The atomic emission spectrum of given element is shown below.
The above atomic emission spectrum of the given element shows that the first emission band appears at 580 nm. Therefore, the wavelength of photon emitted by the given element via using atomic emission spectrum is approximately 580 nm.
The wavelength of photon emitted by the given element via using atomic emission spectrum is 580 nm.
