Chapter 7, Problem 7.33QP

Given the following energy level diagram for an atom that contains an electron in the n = 3 level, answer the following questions.

1. a Which transition of the electron will emit light of the lowest frequency?
2. b Using only those levels depicted in the diagram, which transition of the electron would require the highest-frequency light?
3. c If the transition from the n = 3 level to the n = 1 level emits green light, what color light is absorbed when an electron makes the transition from the n = 1 to n = 3 level?
