The following diagram shows the complete set of orbitals of a hypothetical atom. The yellow
circle represents the nucleus. Point D represents a location beyond the orbitals of this particular
atom. Which of the following statements about an electron transitioning among the labeled
points is TRUE?
с
D
An electron transitioning from orbital A to orbital B will emit or absorb light with a longer wavelength than
an electron transitioning from orbital B to orbital A.
O The energy difference between orbitals B and C is bigger than that between orbitals A and B.
To transition to a point between orbital A and B, an electron would need to absorb less energy than the
difference between the energies of orbital A and B.
An electron transitioning from orbital B orbital C would absorb green light.
To transition from orbital C to orbital B, an electron must emit light.
