Consider the bright line spectrum of hydrogen shown in the figure below. Which line in the spectrum represents photons with the highest energy? 410 nm 434 nm 486 nm 656 nm Hydrogen Line Spectrum. When excited hydrogen atoms return to lower energy states, they emit photons of certain energies, and thus certain colors. Shown here are the colors and wavelengths (in nanometers) of the photons in the visible region that are emitted by excited hydrogen atoms. 434 nm 410 nm O 656 nm 486 nm

A highly excited atom of hydrogen makes a transition from the n = 10 to the n = 9 state and emits a photon. What is the wavelength in meters of the photon emitted when this highly excited hydrogen atom of hydrogen makes its transition from the n = 10 to the n = 9 state?
The energy levels the electron can occupy in the Li2+ ion can be calculated using the energy level equation. A Li2+ ion emitted a photon with a wavelength of 72.9 nm to reach an energy level with n=2. What was the value of n for its initial energy level?
An atom in its ground state absorbs a single photon of light and then relaxes back to the ground state by emitting an infrared photon (1,200 nm) followed by an orange photon (600 nm). What is the wavelength (in nm) of the photon that was absorbed initially?
The work function (φ) for a metal is the amount of energy needed to eject an electron from the surface of the metal via the photoelectric effect. For nickel φ = 8.25 x 10-19J.

The electron in an (unbound) hydrogen atom (H(g)) is excited from the ground state to the n=3 state.Which of the following statements are true and which are false. 1. it takes less energy to ionize the electron from n=3 than it does from the ground state.2. The wavelength of the light emitted when the electron returns to the ground state from n=3 is the same as the wavelength of light absorbed to go from n=1 to n=3.3. the electron is farther from the nucleus on average in the n=3 state than in the ground state.4. The first excited state corresponds to n=3.5. The wavelength of light emitted when the electron drops from n=3 to n=2 is shorter than the wavelength of light emitted if the electron falls from n=3 to n=1.
