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

I

B

II

C

III

D

IV

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
First transition is showing absorption of a photon. From rest of the three transitions, III is having the maximum energy from level n=2 to n = 1.
