Question

Consider a pretend atom for which the electrons can be in any one of the following energy states:

Label each of the following photons as ones that can or cannot be absorbed by this atom without ionizing the atom. The value stated is the energy of the photon.
Can be absorbed Cannot be absorbed  1.00×10-19J
Can be absorbed Cannot be absorbed  1.20×10-18J
Can be absorbed Cannot be absorbed  2.00×10-19J
Can be absorbed Cannot be absorbed  1.10×10-18J
Can be absorbed Cannot be absorbed  9.00×10-19J

Label Energy A -3.000×10-19J B -5.000×10-19J C -8.000×10-19J D -1.400×10-18J

Explanation / Answer

Cannot be absorbed 1.00×10-19J
Cannot be absorbed 1.20×10-18J
Can be absorbed 2.00×10-19J
Can be absorbed 1.10×10-18J
