Using Table 2 from Part B, assign as many of the following electron transitions as you can The first is shown as an example 97.25 nm corresponds with an electron transition from n = 4 to n = 1.

Transfer the values of these unassigned wavelengths to Table 4. They are unassigned because Table 2 only considers up to six energy levels. You calculated the energies of the first ten (see Table 1). Using Table 1 and Table 2, take a guess at its transition. Then do some calculations to see if you are correct. The first one is done for you (without the calculation shown).
