Questions: Below is an energy diagram, similar to that in Figure 1. Hint: Refer back to Figure 1 for guidance. a. Based on the starting atom in Models 1, 2, and 3 of Figure 3, place and label the electrons a, b, and c on the energy diagram above. b. Draw and label arrows on the diagram that correspond to the electron transitions shown in Models 1, 2, and 3. Make sure to consider which direction the arrow should be pointing. c. Are the electronic transitions drawn in part b corresponding to an absorption or an emission of a photon? d. Using the ionization energies provided in Question 12, calculate the energy (in J) that would be required to promote electron b to the same energy level as electron c.
Transcript text: Below is an energy diagram, similar to that in Figure 1. Hint: Refer back to Figure 1 for guidance.
a. Based on the starting atom in Models 1, 2, and 3 of Figure 3, place and label the electrons $a, b$, and $c$ on the energy diagram above.
b. Draw and label arrows on the diagram that correspond to the electron transitions shown in Models 1, 2, and 3. Make sure to consider which direction the arrow should be pointing.
c. Are the electronic transitions drawn in part b corresponding to an absorption or an emission of a photon?
d. Using the ionization energies provided in Question 12, calculate the energy (in J) that would be required to promote electron $b$ to the same energy level as electron $c$.
