Calculate the energy of a photon emitted when an electron in a hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from n=5 to n=1 in j.

Hi, thank you for posting your question here at .

To solve this problem, we use this equation

, where E = 1.602E-19 Joules.

The difference of energy would then be,





Thus, the photon emits or releases 1.54 x 10^-19 Joules of energy.

We can’t you if you only tell us that you have to show us what the answers are

The answer is b on plato.
