An atom has a stationary stateE_1=0.00 eV,E_2=2.0 eV,E_3=5.0 eV and E_4=6.0 eV.A photon with wavelength of 410nm has energy E_Photon=3.0 eV. Do you expect to see a spectral line with λ=410nm in the emission spectrum of atom represented by the energy diagram of the atom? If so, what transition or transitions will emit it? Do you expect to see a spectral line with λ=410nm in the absorption spectrum? If so, what transition or transitions will emit it?
