- Sunburn is caused by ultraviolet UV radiation. Why does red light not cause sunburn?arrow_forwardPhotoelectron spectroscopy applies the principle of the photoelectric effect to study orbital energies of atoms and molecules. High-energy radiation (usually UV or X-ray) is absorbed by a sample and an electron is ejected. The orbital energy can be calculated from the known energy of the radiation and the measured energy of the electron lost. The following energy differences were determined for several electron transitions: ΔE2 →1 = 4.098 ×10−17 J ΔE3 →1 = 4.854 × 10−17 JΔE5 → 1 = 5.242 ×10−17 J ΔE4 → 2 = 1.024 ×10−17 J Calculate the energy change and the wavelength of a photon emitted in the following transitions. Enter your answers in scientific notation. Use 6.626 ×10−34 J·s for Planck's constant. (a) Level 3 to 2: ______J ______m (b) Level 4 to 1: _____J_____ m (c) Level 5 to 4: _____J _____marrow_forward4. Write out the 15 microstates of O in a table and then group them into 3 atomic terms. Which term has the lowest energy? Determine the order in energy of levels in this lowest-energy term. The atomic terms and the lowest-energy term of O are exactly same as those of C. The order in energy of the three atomic terms is: 3p < 'D< !S However, the order in energy of levels of O is the opposite of that of C. The order of the energy levels of the lowest-energy term ³P is: ³P2 < ³P1 < ³Poarrow_forward
