Answer:
2.75 * 10^-5 m
Explanation:
The energy of the absorbed photon = ΔE
ΔE = - Ry (1/n^2 final - 1/n^2initial)
Given that Ry = 2.18 *10^-18 J
nfinal = 9
ninitial =8
ΔE = - 2.18 *10^-18 (1/9^2- 1/8^2)
ΔE = - 2.18 *10^-18 (0.0123 - 0.0156)
ΔE = 7.194 * 10^-21 J
But
ΔE =hc/λ
h = 6.6 *10^-34Js
c= 3 * 10^8 ms-1
λ= the unknown
λ= hc/ΔE
λ= 6.6 *10^-34 * 3 * 10^8/ 7.194 * 10^-21
λ= 2.75 * 10^-5 m
