What is the change in energy experienced by an electron in a hydrogen atom that undergoes an n = 2 to n = 1 transition?
What is the energy of the photon emitted during the transition described?
What is the wavelength of the photon emitted during the transition described?
nm
What region of the electromagnetic spectrum does the emitted energy fall into? Use the following information for your choices. If it is not in the visible light range then write either ultraviolet or infrared (whichever it happens to be). If it is in the visible light range then
write the actual color of the light (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet)

Step 1

According to Bohr's model of an atom, electrons, having a negative charge, revolves around the center of the atom, called the nucleus, in atomic orbitals. Each atomic orbital has a specific energy. In order to move an electron from lower orbital to higher orbital external energy is required.
