What is the principal quantum number value for the highest energy electron in carbon (atomic number 6)?

1 answer:

5 0

The principal quantum number for the highest energy electron in carbon would be 2. It is easy to spot this, since carbon exists in row 2 of the period table. The row in which an element resides always shows the highest value of n, or the principal quantum number, that an electron can reside in.

How does the line spectra are used to identify elements and what they indicate about atoms?

olga nikolaevna [1]

we know that each element has an unique spectra and it can be used to identify the element. it shows that the energy levels of the electrons and different colors are the result of different wavelengths.
