Energy Level Diagrams

Using the Emission Program

Begin with hydrogen. Follow the procedure on the previous page to place the hydrogen gas tube in the socket. Some of the spectral lines for hydrogen will appear in the top spectrum. Create energies and a transition that will match one of the spectral lines of hydrogen. The spectrum that you create appears on the lower spectrum.

Connecting Energies in the Atom to the Spectrum

Once you have created one line in your spectrum answer the following questions.
