Chapter 4, Problem 18P
In a Franck−Hertz experiment on hydrogen atoms, the first two excitation thresholds occur at 10.1 and 11.9 eV. Three optical emission lines are associated with these levels. Sketch an energy-level diagram for hydrogen atoms based on this information. Identify the three transitions associated with these emission lines. Calculate the wavelength of each emitted line.

When two solutions, one of 0.1 M KCl (I) and the other of 0.1 M MCl (II), are brought into contact by a membrane. The cation M cannot cross the membrane. At equilibrium, x moles of K+ will have passed from solution (I) to (II). To maintain the neutrality of the two solutions, x moles of Cl- will also have to pass from I to II. Explain this equality: (0.1 - x)/x = (0.1 + x)/(0.1 - x)
