The following transition occurs when Lithium atoms are sprayed into hot flame. The various steps are numbered for identification. |
\[2s\xrightarrow{I}2p\xrightarrow{II}3d\xrightarrow{III}3p\xrightarrow{IV}\]\[4s\xrightarrow{V}3p\] |
Which of these transitions result in emission of light? |
A) I, II & V
B) III & V
C) III, IV & V
D) All
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
[b] \[2s\xrightarrow{I}2p\xrightarrow{II}3d\xrightarrow{III}3p\xrightarrow{IV}4s\xrightarrow{V}3p\] Energy of 3d is more than 3p therefore it will emit energy, similarly from \[4s\to 3p\] transition.You need to login to perform this action.
