Shows the energy levels for an electron ...

Shows the energy levels for an electron in a certain atom. Which transition shown represented the emission of a photon with the most energy?

A

II

B

I

C

IV

D

III

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The photon emitted is with maximum energy in case of transition III.
`E=E_(2)-E_(1)=(-13.6)/(2^(2))-(-13.6)/(1^(2))=10.2eV`
