7. Calculate the energy change that would result from an electron in a Li atom changing from
n=5 to n=2? Would the wavelength of light associated with this change be visible? (Note:
the visible spectrum ranges from about380 nM to 760 nM.) Would energy be absorbed by
this change or emitted? (You may assume that the equations developed by Bohr for
hydrogen hold for lithium.)

An unknown element was analyzed to determine its identity. From the data below
determine the identity of this element. If the data is inconclusive give the
possibilities of the element.
