12.4 Separation of two energy level of atom, E = 2.3 eV = 2.3 * 1.6 * 10 - 19 J = 3.68 * 10 - 19

Let ? be the frequency of radiation emitted when the atom transits from upper level to lower level.

We have the relation for energy as E = h ?  , where

h = Planck's constant = 6.626 * 10 - 34 Js

Then ? = E h = 3.68 * 10 - 19 6.626 * 10 - 34 Hz = 5.55 * 10 14 Hz

Hence the frequency is 5
