Suppose an unknown chemical element has 4 energy levels that its electrons can have and the upper energy levels are 2.5, 4.7, and 5.1 eV above the ground state and the ionization energy of the atoms is 11.5 eV. To answer the question, it helps to draw an energy level diagram for this element.

A. If a 5.1 eV photon is absorbed by an electron bound to one of these atoms, in which state was the electron in before it absorbed the photon?

B. What is a possible energy of a photon that could be subsequently emitted by the atom?
