Calculate the Energy, in Joules, Required to Excite a Hydrogen

Multiple Choice

Calculate the energy, in joules, required to excite a hydrogen atom by causing an electronic transition from the n = 1 to the n = 4 principal energy level. Recall that the energy levels of the H atom are given by E_n = -2.18 * 10^-18 J(1/n²)

A) 2.07 * 10^-29 J
B) 2.19 * 10⁵ J
C) 2.04 *10^-18 J
D) 3.27 * 10^-17 J
E) 2.25 * 10^-18 J
