For a hydrogen atom,which electronic transition would result in the emission of a photon with the highest energy?
A)2s → 3p
B)3p → 6d
C)4p → 2s
D)5f → 3d

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The highest energy photon is emitted when an electron transitions from a higher energy level to a lower one. The transition from 4p to 2s involves a larger energy difference compared to the other options, resulting in the emission of a photon with the highest energy.
