Consider the following energy levels of a hypothetical atom: :E4×−1.71*10^−19J :E3×−7.91*10^−19J :E2×−1.05*10^−18J :E1×−1.75*10^−18J   A)What is the wavelength (m)of the photon needed to excite an electron from  E1to E4? Round your answer to 3 significant digits. B)What is the energy (in joules) a photon must have in order to excite an electron from E2 to E3? Round your answer to 3 significant digits. C)When an electron drops from the E3 level to the E1 level, the atom is said to undergo emission. Calculate the wavelength (m) of the photon emitted in this process. Round your answer to 3significant digits.
