Compute the wavelength of the transition in nanometers

Reference no: EM13284137

For the hydrogen atom, consider the light emitted by an electronic transition from quantum level n = 3 to n = 1. Use the Rydberg equation (1 / wavelength = (1/n(smallest)^2 - 1/n(largest)^2) to calculate the wavelength of this transition in nanometers (nm) and to three significant figures.
