a) The element helium is named for the Sun because that is where it was first observed. What is the shortest wavelength that one would expect to observe from a singly ionized helium atom in the atmosphere of the Sun?
b) Suppose light with a wavelength of 388.9 nm is observed from singly ionized helium. What are the initial and final values of the quantum number nn corresponding to this wavelength?

Conceptually, discuss the particle-wave duality of light. Discuss the implications of this in combination with the de Broglie (pronounced “de Broy”) equation. b. The electron of a hydrogen atom is usually no further than 1.0 Å from the proton. We can therefore say the upper limit of the radius of an isolated hydrogen atom is roughly 1.0 Å. How does the de Broglie wavelength of the electron compare to this radius? (The velocity of an electron in the first principal energy level is about 2.2 x 106 m/s).
