The Pfund series of lines in the emission spectrum of hydrogen corresponds to transitions from higher excited states to the n = 5 orbit. Calculate the wavelength of the second line in the Pfund series to three significant figures. In which region of the spectrum does it lie?

Explanation:

The second line in the Pfund series corresponds to a transition from n = 7 to n = 5.

To calculate the wavelength of the transition, we can use the Rydberg equation:

where

If n₁ = 5 and n₂ = 7

? you expect us to answer this? ? this is your schoolwork, i don't think we can with this, i think it would considering being

the density of gold = 19.3 g/cm3

the relation between density and mass and volume is

density = mass / volume

given :

mass of gold = 13 g

density = 13g / volume = 19.3

volume = 13 /19.3 = 0.67 cm^3

thus volume of gold nugget = 0.67 cm^3
