Energy Levels: Light shines through atomic hydrogen gas that was initially in its ground state. You observe that after awhile much of the hydrogen gas has been excited to its n = 5 state. What wavelength of light entering the gas caused this excitation? (c = 3.00 × 108 m/s, h = 6.626 × 10-34 J ? s, 1 eV = 1.60 × 10-19 J)
A. 110 nm
B. 91.4 nm
C. 95.2 nm
D. 2280 nm
