A hydrogen atom in a state having a bindingenergy the


A hydrogen atom in a state having a bindingenergy (the energy required to remove an electron) of0.85 eV makes a transition to a statewith an excitation energy (the difference between the energyof the state and that of the ground state) of 10.2 eV.

(a) What is the energy of the photon emitted as a result of the transition?

eV

(b) What is the higher quantum number of the transition producingthis emission?

(c) What is the lower quantum number of the transition producingthis emission?
