Energy to ionize a hydrogen atom


1) A hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from the n = 12 state to the n = 5 state. Explain why it emits a photon during this transition.

2) Explain why it takes less energy to ionize a hydrogen atom when it's in an excited state, rather than when its in the ground state

3) Without using equations, explain why there are 10 possible electron states in a d subshell.
