Question:

Atomic emission experiments of a mixture show a calcium line at 422.673 nm corresponding to a 1P1 → 1S0 transition and a doublet due to potassium 2P3/2 → 2S1/2 and 2P1/2 → 2S1/2 transitions at 764.494 and 769.901nm, respectively.

a. Calculate the ratio gupper /glower for each of these transitions.

b. Calculate nupper /nlower for a temperature of 1600°C for each transition.
