according to bohr's theory the electronic energy of hydrogen atom in the nth bohr's orbit is given by En=-21.76*10^-19/n^2 J calculate the longest wavelength of light that will be needed to remove an electron from the 3rd orbit of an He+ atom?

@Frostbite

OpenStudy (frostbite):

You know the Bohr frequency condition? \[\large \Delta E = h f\] Delta E is the energy difference between the shells \[\large E_{2}-E _{1}=hf\] Use the formula given to calculate the 3. orbital energy.

OpenStudy (frostbite):

And 1. orbital energy too.

and what about the wavelength? @Frostbite

OpenStudy (frostbite):

Use wave theory: \[\large f=\frac{ c }{ \lambda }\] c is the speed of light.

OKK!

OpenStudy (frostbite):

Sorry not meant like that :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OKk bro thanx then i will solve it tomorrow cz now i m going 4 a sleep

OpenStudy (frostbite):
