Answer: I'll leave the answer rounded to three sig figs.

So, you can say that in a hydrogen atom, an electron located on
n
i
=
2
that absorbs a photon of energy
4.85
⋅
10
−
19
J
can make the jump to
n
f
=
6
.
Explanation:
The question wants you to determine the energy that the incoming photon must have in order to allow the electron that absorbs it to jump from
n
i
=
2
to
n
f
=
6
.
A good starting point here will be to calculate the energy of the photon emitted when the electron falls from
n
i
=
6
to
n
f
=
2
by using the Rydberg equation.
