Question
Chapter 19, Problem 42QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The term “overvoltage” is to be defined and its affect on electrolytic processes is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
The amount of work required to migrate a unit positive charge is known as the electric potential.
The difference between the electric potentials is known as voltage.
Overvoltage occurs when the voltage of a circuit surpasses its maximum limit.

(6 pts - 2 pts each part) Although we focused our discussion on hydrogen light emission, all
elements have distinctive emission spectra. Sodium (Na) is famous for its spectrum being
dominated by two yellow emission lines at 589.0 and 589.6 nm, respectively. These lines result
from electrons relaxing to the 3s subshell.
a. What is the photon energy (in J) for one of these emission lines? Show your work.
b. To what electronic transition in hydrogen is this photon energy closest to? Justify your
answer-you shouldn't need to do numerical calculations.
c. Consider the 3s subshell energy for Na - use 0 eV as the reference point for n=∞. What
is the energy of the subshell that the electron relaxes from? Choose the same emission
line that you did for part (a) and show your work.
None
(9 Pts) In one of the two Rare Earth element rows of the periodic table, identify an exception to
the general ionization energy (IE) trend. For the two elements involved, answer the following
questions. Be sure to cite sources for all physical data that you use.
a. (2 pts) Identify the two elements and write their electronic configurations.
b. (2 pts) Based on their configurations, propose a reason for the IE trend exception.
c. (5 pts) Calculate effective nuclear charges for the last electron in each element and the
Allred-Rochow electronegativity values for the two elements. Can any of these values
explain the IE trend exception? Explain how (not) - include a description of how IE
relates to electronegativity.
