Welcome to your afternoon lecture...as opposed to online..."lab"...

Here is a slightly different version of the hydrogen atom energy level diagram. As you will recall, this idea of "quantized" energy levels was a result of some experiments that resulted in the formulation of quantum mechanics. The electron exists in the lowest energy state, the 1s orbital, unless this electron is excited to higher energy levels.

In the following version of the energy level diagram, i have places a few "excited" electrons...complete the following table to identify the quantum numbers with each of these electrons.

color n - principal l -angular ml - magnetic 'ms - spin
purple
orange
green
red
