Interpretation:
Whether the transition
Concept introduction:
Electronic spectra are formed by the excitation and relaxation process of electrons. The excitation process is due to the transition of an electron from a lower energy level to a higher energy level. The relaxation process is due to the transition of an electron from a higher energy level to a lower energy level.
