Q3: Are all energy levels equally spaced with respect to n? If not, do they become more or less closely spaced as n increases? Draw a new figure of 4 horizontal lines where each horizontal line corresponds to one energy level. Place the horizontal lines vertically to scale such that they are spaced accurately according to their energy, and label your lines corresponding to n=1, n=2, etc. The energy levels are not equally spaced with respect to n. They become more closely spaced as n increases. 4 Using this diagram, identify the largest energy transition between two adjacent energy levels. Calculate this energy difference and the corresponding frequency and wavelength of the emitted photon. Identify the largest energy transition that can occur between any two levels in your diagram. Calculate the energy for this transition along with the corresponding wavelength of the emitted photon. The largest energy transition between two adjacent energy levels is between n=1 and n=2. =1 n = 4 n = 3 n 2 -n 1 7 ↑ & Eiz = 10 .
