Chapter 28, Problem 22A

To determine

To Explain: The way in which the Bohr model explains the reason for the absorption spectrum of hydrogen containing exactly the same wavelengths as its emission spectrum.

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

As per the Bohr model, the absorption spectrum of hydrogen contains the same wavelengths as its emission spectrum.

The energy of an emitted photon or that of an absorbed photon is the same as the change in energy of the atom that will have certain values and depends on the difference between the energy levels.
