Question

The figure at the right shows transitions between three states of a molecule (labeled E₁, E₂, and E₃) that are observed through the emission and absorption of photons in a pair of experiments, A and B.

1. Which transition is associated with the emission of the photon of the longest wavelength?
a b c d e

2. Which transition is associated with the absorption of the photon of the shortest wavelength?
a b c d e

3. If a cold gas of these molecules was in the atmosphere of a star that was emitting a continuous spectrum, you would expect to see some dark lines across the continuous spectrum from that star. This is because the molecules in the atmosphere of the star absorb some of the light emitted by the star. Which frequencies would you expect to be significantly blocked by passing through the cold gas?

a. (E₂ - E₁)/h
b. (E₃ E₁)/h
c. (E₃ E₂)/h
d. None of them.

a b c d
