- Cesium was discovered in natural mineral waters in 1860 by R. W. Bunsen and G. R. Kirchhoff, using the spectroscope they invented in 1859. The name came from the Latin caesius ("sky blue") because of the prominent blue line observed for this element at 455.5 nm. Calculate the frequency and energy of a photon of this light.arrow_forwardThe emission spectrum of cesium contains two lines whose frequencies are (a) 3.451014 Hz and (b) 6.531014 Hz. What are the wavelengths and energies per photon of the two lines? What color are the lines?arrow_forwardSpectroscopists have observed He+ in outer space. This ion is a one-electron species like a neutral hydrogen atom. Calculate the energy of the photon emitted for the transition from the n = 5 to the n = 3 state in this ion using the equation: En = − Z2/n2 (2.179 × 10−18 J). Z is the positive charge of the nucleus and n is the principal quantum number. In what part of the electromagnetic spectrum does this radiation lie?arrow_forward

- One bit of evidence that the quantum mechanical model is correct lies in the magnetic properties of matter. Atoms with unpaired electrons are attracted by magnetic fields and thus are said to exhibit pararamagnetism. The degree to which this effect is observed is directly related to the number of unpaired electrons present in the atom. Consider the ground-state electron configurations for Li, N, Ni, Te, Ba, and Hg. Which of these atoms would be expected to be paramagnetic, and how many unpaired electrons are present in each paramagnetic atom?arrow_forwardIt requires 799 kJ of energy to break one mole of carbon-oxygen double bonds in carbon dioxide.
