Which of these electron transitions correspond to absorption of energy and which to emission? a. n = 5 to n = 6 absorption emission
b. n = 9 to n = 6 absorption emission
c. n = 6 to n = 4 absorption emission
d. n = 6 to n = 7 absorption emission

n = 5 to n = 6 absorption

n = 9 to n = 6 emission

n = 6 to n = 4 emission

n = 6 to n = 7 absorption

Explanation:

According to the Bohr's model of the atom. An electron in an atom may absorb energy and move from a lower energy level to a higher energy level. This requires absorption of energy that is equal to the energy difference between the two levels.

Similarly, an electron may move from a higher to a lower energy level, releasing energy that is equal to the energy difference between the higher and the lower level. This is known as emission.

Hence, if the electron is moving from a lower energy level to a higher energy level, an absorption has taken place, e.g n = 5 to n = 6

When an electron moves from a higher energy level to a lower energy level, an emission has taken place e.g n = 9 to n = 6
