Brockport High School: Energy Levels of Hydrogen Atom

Curated by ACT

From the Brockport High School Physics Labs web pages. Includes an excellent graphic depicting the energy levels of a hydrogen atoms and portraying the electron level transitions for the Lyman, Balmer, and Paschen series. Includes both the absorption and emission transitions. Also includes some brief directions describing a lab experiment for the analysis of the H atom line spectra using a hydrogen gas tube and a spectrometer.
