Hello everyone!
I have a question about the possible transitions for a hydrogen atom from an excited state back to the ground state.
Lets say that a H atom is in the n = 4 excited state, what are the possible transitions back to n = 1?
I thought the answer was:
4 -> 3
4 -> 2
4 -> 1
but then I guess we need to include:
3->2
3->1
2->1
si?
cheers,
Nick
