Find whether the following transitions (specified in terms of the initial and final quantum numbers n, ?, m?, and ms) are allowed, and if they are, find the energy involved and whether the photon is absorbed or emitted for the hydrogen atom.
(a) (5, 2, -1, 1/2 ) ? (6, 3, -1, 1/2)
Is the transition allowed?
---Select--- Yes or No
What is the energy involved? (Include sign. Enter "none" if the
transition is forbidden.)
eV
Is the photon absorbed or emitted?
---Select--- absorbed, emitted, neither, or transition
forbidden
(b) (4, 3, 0, 1/2) ? (4, 2, -1, -1/2)
Is the transition allowed?
---Select--- Yes or No
