Interpretation:
The wavelength required to remove one electron from lithium atom should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
First ionization energy:
The ionization energy is the minimum energy required to remove the electron from an isolated atom which is in the gaseous state results to give gaseous ion with one positive charge.
Cation: Removal of electron from the atom results to form positively charged ion called cation.
The net charge present in the element denotes the presence or absence of electrons in the element.
In periodic table the horizontal rows are called periods and the vertical column are called group.
Plank-Einstein Equation: The energy is conversed property since it can neither be created nor be destroyed but can be transformed. The energy of the photon is obtained by using the following relation
Wavelength: The distance between the two continuous maximum displacements present in wave or the two continuous minimum displacements present in a wave exhibited by the photons is called wavelength. The wavelength of the photon is inversely proportional to its frequency. The relationship between them is given by the following formula,
Frequency: It denotes the number of waves passes in given amount of time.
The wavelength in

Answer to Problem 8.102QP
The wavelength required to remove the electron from the lithium atom is 230
Explanation of Solution
Determine the ionization energy for lithium.
The ionization energy for lithium atom is determined by using the given first ionization energy of the atom and converting it from
Determine the wavelength required to remove electron from lithium atom.
The wavelength required to remove the electron from the nucleus is obtained by dividing Planck’s constant and velocity of light with the energy of the wavelength which yields the value in meters that is finally converted to nanometers using the conversion that
The maximum wavelength required to remove an electron from the atom is determined by using the ionization energy.

- 1) The isoamyl acetate report requires eight paragraphs - four for comparison of isoamyl alcohol and isoamyl acetate (one paragraph each devoted to MS, HNMR, CNMR and IR) and four for comparison of acetic acid and isoamyl acetate ((one paragraph each devoted to MS, HNMR, CNMR and IR. 2) For MS, the differing masses of molecular ions are a popular starting point. Including a unique fragmentation is important, too. 3) For HNMR, CNMR and IR state the peaks that are different and what makes them different (usually the presence or absence of certain groups). See if you can find two differences (in each set of IR, HNMR and CNMR spectra) due to the presence or absence of a functional group. Include peak locations. Alternatively, you can state a shift of a peak due to a change near a given functional group. Including peak locations for shifted peaks, as well as what these peaks are due to. Ideally, your focus should be on not just identifying the differences but explaining them in terms of…arrow_forward№3 Fill in the below boxes. HN 1. LAH 2.
