Draw a schematic of the hydrogen atom with the single proton in the nucleus, and the n=1, n=2, n=3, and n=4 energy level options for the electron. Put the electron in the lowest energy configuration.

Respuesta :

Explanation:

According to Bohr's postulates, the electron in the present in the lower energy level can absorb energy and exits to higher energy level. Also, when this electron returns back to its orbit, it emits some energy.

Since the hydrogen consists of 1 electron and 1 proton. The lowest energy configuration of the hydrogen is when n =1 or, when the electron is present in the K-shell or the ground state.

The possible transition for the electron given in the question is :

n = 2, 3 and 4

The schematic diagram of the hydrogen atom consisting of these four quantum levels in which the electron can jump (Absorption) and comeback to from these energy levels (emission) .

The lowest energy level is called the ground state and other levels are called excited states.

What is the Bohr Model?

According to the Bohr model, atoms of elements possess electrons and these electrons are arranged in energy levels. The lowest energy level is called the ground state and other levels are called excited states.

The energy level diagram of hydrogen from the lowest energy level (n=1) to the energy level n=4 are shown in the image attached.
