Electron Transition & Photon Emission in Hydrogen Atom

[manimaran1605]

How an electron transition from lower energy state to higher energy state in hydrogen atom emits a photon?

What is your level of knowledge? There are many possible answers to this question, but unless you know something about quantum field theory, it will probably stay at the level of "something is moving, so it emits radiation".

There is noway this can happen...where did you read that? the photon would need to have negative energy... except for if you mean absorb?

Oh wait, lower to higher? No, that does not work. I read "higher to lower", as that is a common question.
