The energies, E, for the first few states of an unknown element are shown here in arbitrary units.

n 1 2 3 4 ...  
E -42 -18 -8 -6 .... 0

A gaseous sample of this element is bombarded by photons of various energies (in these same units). Match each photon to the result of its absorption (or lack thereof) by an n=1 electron.

Photon Energy Result OPTIONS

A 42 n=1 to n=2

B 34 n=1 to n=3

C 31 n=1 to n=4

D 24 electron ejected

not absorbed
