Spectrum Line Table: Color, Wavelengths, and Energies for Observed Spectra

[thetickets]

Homework Statement

Prepare a table of spectral lines by color, with correct wavelengths, and corresponding energies for every line spectrum you observed. Pick one line spectrum and explain the order of color from least to most energetic

Homework Equations

I'm not quite sure what to do here. I emailed my professor and he was of no help. Does it sound like I am to prepare a generic spectra or one that corresponds to my data? Also, how many energy answers am I suppose to have for each spectra.

The Attempt at a Solution

I attempted to make the data table based on my data rather than a generic spectra. Also, I took the initial wavelength and used it to find energy in Joules and subtracted that from the final wavelength's energy to come up up with my final answer.

You took spectra as part of some experiment, I guess, and you have some experimental data lying on your desk (I guess)? Use them.

I also added a column for the difference in wavelength and energy between each line to show the increase in energy as the color progresses from least to most energetic. However, without further context or instructions, it is difficult to determine if this is the correct approach or if there should be more information included in the table. It would be helpful to have more details or examples of the observed spectra in order to accurately complete this assignment.
