What transition energy corresponds to an absorption line at 527 nm?

E = 3.77×10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength of absorption line = 527 nm (527×10⁻⁹m)

Energy of absorption line = ?

Solution:

Formula:

E = hc/λ

h = planck's constant = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js

c = speed of wave = 3×10⁸ m/s

by putting values,

E = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js ×  3×10⁸ m/s / 527×10⁻⁹m

E = 19.89×10⁻²⁶ Jm /527×10⁻⁹m

E = 0.0377×10⁻¹⁷ J

E = 3.77×10⁻¹⁹ J
