An electron in the hydrogen atom makes a transition from an energy state of principal quantum number ni to the n = 2 state. If the photon emitted has a wavelength of 434 nm, what is the value of ni?   Enter just the value of ni, and not the whole expression (e.g., do not enter n = 2).
A hydrogen atom in an excited bound state labeled with prin- cipal quantum number n = 3 absorbs a photon that has wavelength l. The atom is ionized and the electron has kinetic energy 8.00 eV after it has left the atom. What was the wavelength I of the photon?
A photon is emitted when a hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from the n = 6 state to the n = 2 state. Calculate values for the following. (a) the wavelength nm (b) the frequency Hz (c) the energy of the emitted photon eV
