Question

The radius of the n=1n=1 orbit in the hydrogen atom is a0=0.053 nma_0=0.053 \mathrm{~nm}. b) If an electron in the n=6n=6 orbit drops to the n=1n=1 orbit (ground state), what are the frequency and the wavelength of the emitted radiation? What kind of radiation is emitted (visible, infrared, etc.)?
