Question:

(a) For carbon, calculate the energy when an electron falls from n = 3 to n = 2, then from n = 2 to n = 1. Then add these for the total energy released in the process.

(b) Calculate the energy released when the electron falls directly from n = 3 to n = 1.

(c) Are the energies in part a and in part b the same?
