Chemistry

The energies, E, for the first few states of an unknown element are shown here in arbitrary units. n 1 E -11 n 2 E -5 n 3 E -2 n 4 E -1 n ... E ... n infinite E 0 A gaseous sample of this element is bombarded by photons of various energies (in these same units). Match each photon to the result of its absorption (or lack thereof) by an n=1 electron. Photon/Energy A/11 B/9 C/8 D/6 Choices: n=1 to n=2 n=1 to n=3 n=1 to n=4 electron ejected not absorbed
