The electronic transition in a hydrogen atom from n = 7 to n = 2 emits electromagnetic radiation having a longer wavelength than a transition from n = 6 to n = 3.

I'll leave the answer rounded to three sig figs.

mark me brainlist

So, you can say that in a hydrogen atom, an electron located on  

n

i

=

2

that absorbs a photon of energy  

4.85

⋅

10

−

19

J

can make the jump to  

n

f

=

6

.

Explanation:

The question wants you to determine the energy that the incoming photon must have in order to allow the electron that absorbs it to jump from  

n

i

=

2

to  

n

f

=

6

.

A good starting point here will be to calculate the energy of the photon emitted when the electron falls from  

n

i

=

6

to  

n

f

=

2

by using the Rydberg equation.

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.
