Rydberg's Constant

Postby Andrea_1H » Sun Oct 20, 2019 5:01 pm

For Rydberg's constant, we should only use the one provided in the equations and constants sheet Dr. Lavelle has on his website, right? And we should stick to E= rather than Rydberg's equation?

Yes, just stick to the ones he provides us.

Rydberg's can be derived from the equations given to us. So that we can connect it to what we are learning conceptually, Lavelle wants us to be able to manipulate the given equation rather than memorizing Rydberg's.

Does anyone know what the actual constant is for Rydberg's constant? Or is it the (1/n1 - 1/n2)?
