Heated lithium atoms emit photons of light with an energy of 2.961 × 10−19 j. calculate the frequency and wavelength of one of these photons. what is the total energy in 1 mole of these photons? what is the color of the emitted light?

4.5 x 10¹⁴ Hz

666.7 nm

1.8 x 10⁵ J

The color of the emitted light is red

Explanation:

E = energy of photons of light = 2.961 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

f = frequency of the photon

Energy of photons is given as

E = h f

2.961 x 10⁻¹⁹ = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴) f

f = 4.5 x 10¹⁴ Hz

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of photon

Using the equation

c = f λ

3 x 10⁸ = (4.5 x 10¹⁴) λ

λ = 0.6667 x 10⁻⁶ m

λ = 666.7 x 10⁻⁹ m

λ = 666.7 nm

n = number of photons in 1 mole = 6.023 x 10²³

U = energy of 1 mole of photons

Energy of 1 mole of photons is given as

U = n E

U = (6.023 x 10²³) (2.961 x 10⁻¹⁹)

U = 1.8 x 10⁵ J

The color of the emitted light is red

b.
