1.Infrared radiation has wavelengths ranging
from about 800 nm to 1 mm. What is the
frequency of radiation of wavelength 970 nm?
Answer in units of s−1
Convert nm to m and use c = f*w.
c is speed of light in m/s, solve for f(requency) and substitute for w(avelength).<?b>
2.Microwaves, such as those used for radar and
to heat food in a microwave oven, have wavelengths
greater than about 3 mm. What
is the frequency of radiation of wavelength
4.75 mm?
Answer in units of s−1
same procedure as #1.
3.Sodium vapor lamps, used for public lighting,
emit yellow light of wavelength 560 nm. How
much energy is emitted by an excited sodium
atom when it generates a photon?
Answer in units of J.
E = hc/wavelength
4.How much energy is emitted by 45.8 mg of
sodium atoms emitting light at this wavelength?
Answer in units of J.
mols Na = grams/atomic mass = ? mols.
E = hc/wavelength. That gives E in joules/1 atom. That x 6.02E23 = joules/1 mol. That x # moles from above = total E.
5.How much energy is emitted by 1 mol of
sodium ions emitting light at this wavelength?
Answer in units of kJ.
See problem 4.
