how do i solve this problem
Does a Photon of visible light (400 to 700nm) have sufficient energy to excite an electron in a hydrogen atom from the n=1 to the n05 energy state? From the n=2 to the n+6 energy state?
If someone could explain how to do this it would be a great help.

Drop us a note and let us know which textbooks you need. Be sure to include which edition of the textbook you are using! If we see enough demand, we'll do whatever we can to get those notes up on the site for you!
First you use the equation to find out how much energy it takes for the electron to be moved. Then you use the E = hc/lambda where lambda is the wavelength and find the wavelength of the light that would excite the electron as such. Anything higher than that number is also valid.
