A bore model is shown representing a hydrogen atom with various electronic transitions.
00:08
The emissions are going to be the transitions from higher energy levels down to lower energy levels.
00:15
These include transitions b, e, and f, where they start at a higher energy level and go to a lower energy level.
00:23
Absorptions are going to be the electrons starting at a lower energy level, going up to a higher energy level.
00:28
These are a, c, and d.
00:33
Rank the emissions in terms of increasing energy, we are referring to an increase in the energy associated with the difference in energies between the two states.
00:46
The one that has the lowest energy is going to be the one that undergoes the transition between the fewest energy states at the highest level.
00:59
So, for example, e is going from energy level 5 to energy level three, that's two energy states and we're at fairly large numbers, so that's a very small amount of energy.
01:12
The difference in energy decreases as we go up in energy levels.
01:17
Then we will go to f, where f is transitioning from four down to one, so that is three energy levels...
