Chapter 21, Problem 21.91SP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The rem dose received by the patient has to be identified from the given information.

Concept Introduction:

  • The rate of radioactive decay at any time t is given by,

    Rateofdecayattimet=λN, where λ is the first-order rate constant and N is the number of radioactive nuclei present at any time t.

  • Number of radioactive nuclei at time zero (N0) and time t(Nt) is given by

  lnNtN0=λt

  • Half-life of the reaction is given by

  t1/2=0.693λ

(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.
