A positive ion with exactly one electron ejects this electron when it absorbs a photon of wavelength or shorter. Determine the ion.
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
D.
Step-by-step solution
The ionization of a hydrogen-like ion corresponds to the transition of an electron from to .
Using the Rydberg formula:
R Z^2\lambda = 228 \text{ \AA} = 228 \times 10^{-10} \text{ m} and the Rydberg constant :
\dfrac{1}{\lambda R} = \dfrac{1}{228 \times 10^{-10} \times 1.097 \times 10^7}
\dfrac{1000}{250.116} \approx
The ion with atomic number and exactly one electron is .
