Spectral Lines

Postby Vivien Truong 1A » Tue Dec 07, 2021 9:00 am

How do I know which region (spectral line) an electron is closer to in terms of energy?

Rewatch my lecture on this topic.

Electron transitions involving n = 1 (UV region).

Electron transitions involving n = 2 (VIS region).

Electron transitions involving n = 3 (IR region).

highest energy UV > VIS > IR lowest energy
