These questions require more thought and integrate several concepts.

An element has an ionization energy of 1.66 × 10^-18 J. The three longest wavelengths in its absorption spectrum are 253.7 nm, 185.0 nm, and 158.5 nm.

(a) Construct an energy-level diagram similar to Figure 7.8 for this element.

(b) Indicate all possible emission lines. Start from the highest energy level on the diagram.
