| This applet uses the Bohr
equation to calculate the energy levels of a
hydrogen atom. Exercise. Your
goal is to construct the visible line spectrum of
hydrogen by selecting the energy transitions of
the Balmer series. Report the initial and final
energy levels, wavelength, and color of each line
you expect to observe.
Click on an
initial energy level, hold the mouse button down,
and drag the mouse to the final level. An arrow,
an energy change expression, and a wavelength
will appear. If the transition you have selected
is part of the Balmer Series, click the Add Line
to Spectrum button. Find the four visible lines
in the Balmer series.
