how do I solve this?? https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-VCDHWlnnuOA/UXjwqNjR4_I/AAAAAAAAAEo/ggqmzHWebvE/s703/chem.png

OpenStudy (frostbite):

One way would be to use the Rydberg formula for hydrogen.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh.. whats that? :( i know these formula, c=(lamda) f and the formula for change in energy, cant i solve it using these? :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

another is Ephoton = hv

OpenStudy (frostbite):

Hmmmm I would perhaps more use this: \[\frac{ 1 }{ \lambda }=R \left( \frac{ 1 }{ n _{1}^{2} } - \frac{ 1 }{ n_{2}^{2} } \right)\]

OpenStudy (frostbite):

This equation can calculate any wavelength due to jumps between the shells in hydrogen.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[R= -2.178 x 10^{-18}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you call that equation?

OpenStudy (frostbite):

the Rydberg formula

oh thank you so much :)
