### Question 6: Photon Absorption in a Hydrogen Atom#### Problem Statement:A hydrogen atom absorbs a photon of visible light, and its electron enters the \( n = 4 \) energy level. Calculate the change in energy of the atom and the wavelength (in nm) of the photon.#### Choices:a) \( 20.4 \times 10^{-19} \) J and \( 97.44 \) nmb) \( 4.09 \times 10^{-19} \) J and \( 486 \) nmc) \( 5.09 \times 10^{-19} \) J and \( 4.86 \) nmd) \( 4.09 \times 10^{-19} \) J and \( 386 \) nm#### Explanation:To solve this problem, we need to use the relationship between the energy levels of the hydrogen atom and the energy of the absorbed photon. The energy change (\( \Delta E \)) when an electron transitions between energy levels in a hydrogen atom is given by:\[ \Delta E = E_4 - E_i \]Where \( E_4 \) is the energy of the \( n = 4 \) level and \( E_i \) is the energy level the electron transitioned from.Additionally, the energy (\( E \)) of the absorbed photon can be related to its wavelength (\( \lambda \)) by the equation:\[ E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} \]Where:- \( h \) is Planck's constant (\( 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \) Js)- \( c \) is the speed of light (\( 3.00 \times 10^8 \) m/s)- \( \lambda \) is the wavelength of the photon in metersBy matching the change in energy (\( \Delta E \)) with the given choices and using the respective equations, we can determine the correct option.
