Question

Which electron transition emits electromagnetic radiation with the highest energy?

n = 2 to n = 1
n = 6 to n = 2
n = 6 to n = 3
n = 4 to n = 1

Answer 1

So, you can say that in a hydrogen atom, an electron located on

n i=2

that absorbs a photon of energy

4.85⋅10−19

J can make the jump to n f=6.
