Consider the following spectrum where two colorful lines (A and B) are positioned on a dark background. The violet end of the spectrum is on the left and the red end of the spectrum is on the right. A B 5. (1 point) What is the name for this type of spectrum? 6. (1 point) Transition A is associated with an electron moving between the n= 1 and n= 3 levels. Transition B is associated with an electron moving between the n= 2 and n= 5 levels. Which transition is associated with a photon of longer wavelength?

This type of spectrum is called line emission spectrum . Because it consists of lines . It is emission spectrum because it is due to emission of radiation from a source .

b ) The wavelength of a photon is inversely proportional to its energy . Photon due to transition between n = 1 and n = 3 will have higher energy than

that due to transition between n = 2 and n = 5 . So the later photon ( B) will have greater wavelength or photon due to transition between n = 2 and n = 5 will have greater wavelength .
