Answer to Question #88095 in General Chemistry for taha

Question

A. For the hydrogen atom, the transition from the 2p state to the 1s state is accompanied by the emission of a photon with an energy of 16.2×10-19 J. For a Ge atom, the same transition (2p to 1s) is accompanied by the emission of x-rays of wavelength 1.25 Å. What is the energy difference between these states in germanium?

_________ J

B. The energy difference between these states in germanium is LARGER, SMALLER, OR SAME AS than the corresponding energy difference for hydrogen.


C. The energy difference between these states in chromium would be expected to be LARGER, SMALLER, OR SAME AS than the corresponding energy difference for germanium.
