Chapter 14, Problem 14.107P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Energy of electronic transition of $\text{Na}$ from $\text{3p1 to 3s1}$ has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Energy of electronic transition is calculated by below equation, it gives the relationship between energy and wave length.

    $\begin{array}{l}\text{ΔE}\text{=}\frac{\text{hc}}{\text{λ}}\\ \text{where,}\\ \text{E-}\text{energy}\\ \text{h-}\text{Planck's constant (6}{\text{.626 x 10}}^{\text{-34}}\text{ J·s)}\\ \text{c}{\text{-speed of light (3 x 10}}^{\text{8}}\text{ m/sec)}\end{array}$
