6. Metals can be identified using the emission spectrum produced when a sample is burned in a flame. The
flame excites the electrons, which then transition to lower levels and produce emission lines.
(a) The emission line used for zinc determinations in spectroscopy is 214 nm. If 7.7 ×1013 Zn atoms emit
light in the flame at any given instant, what energy (in J) must the flame continuously supply?
(b) During an emission, electrons move from a higher energy to a lower energy orbital.
Which of following are valid transitions that produce lines in the emission spectrum of Zn?
[Ar] 4s? 3d10
[Ar] 3d!0
[Ar] 4s? 3d10.
[Ar]4s' 3d10 6s'
>
[Ar] 4s? 3d10
[Ar] 4s' 3d!!
[Ar] 4s' 3d10 6s' → [Ar] 4s? 3d10
[Ar] 4s? 3d10 → [Ar]4s² 3d10 4p²
[Ar] 3d10 → [Ar] 4s² 3d10
