Find the wavelength of the photon that is emitted when a hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from n; = 6 to nf = 2. (RH = 1.097 x 10-3Å-1) Answer
A photoelectron is emitted from K shell (n = 1) of a carbon atom, and an election in L shell (n = 2) moves down to the vacancy in K shell. What is the wavelength, in the unit of nm, of the photon emitted during this transition?
Use for the energy difference between two states in an atom.
E0 = 13.6 eV and atomic number of carbon is Z = 12.
Use σ = 1 for the transition to K shell and σ = 7.4 for the transition to L shell
