Problem 41E
Calculate the energy of a photon of electromagnetic radiation at each of the wavelengths indicated in Problem 39.
REFERENCE PROBLEM:
Calculate the frequency of each wavelength of electromagnetic radiation:
a. 632.8 nm (wavelength of red light from helium-neon laser)
b. 503 nm (wavelength of maximum solar radiation)
c. 0.052 nm (a wavelength contained in medical X-rays)
SolutionStep1(a)As size of an atom increases,the nuclear pull experienced by the outermost electrondecreases.Since ionization energy is the energy required to remove the outermost electronfrom a neutral atom in the gas phase.we can say that ionization decreases with an increase insize.
