- RGB color television and computer displays use cathode ray tubes that produce colors by mixing red, green, and blue light. If we look at the screen with a magnifying glass, we can see individual dots turn on and off as the colors change. Using a spectrum of visible light, determine the approximate wavelength of each of these colors.

(b) If a transition between the two higher energy states could be observed, what would be the frequency of the light?arrow_forwardAn atom in its ground state absorbs a photon (photon 1), then quickly emits another photon (photon 2). One of these photons corresponds to ultraviolet radiation, whereas the other one corresponds to red light. Explain what is happening.

- 6.93 A mercury atom is initially in its lowest possible (or ground state) energy level. The atom absorbs a photon with a wavelength of 185 nm and then emits a photon with a frequency of 4.9241014HZ . At the end of this series of transitions, the atom will still be in an energy level above the ground state. Draw an energy-level diagram for this process and find the energy of this resulting excited state, assuming that we assign a value of E = 0 to the ground state. (This choice of E = 0 is not the usual convention, but it will simplify the calculations you need to do here.)arrow_forwardThe eyes of certain reptiles pass a single visual signal to the brain when the visual receptors are struck by photons of a wavelength of 850 nm.

During this absorption, an ozone molecule absorbs a photon, which breaks an oxygen-oxygen bond, yielding an oxygen molecule and an oxygen atom: O3(g)+hvO2(g)+O(g) (Here, hv denotes a photon.) Suppose a flask of ozone is irradiated with a pulse of UV light of wavelength 275 nm. Assuming that each photon of this pulse that is absorbed breaks up one ozone molecule, calculate the energy absorbed per mole of O2 produced, giving the answer in kJ/mol.arrow_forward
