Question

How do I construct an energy level diagram for the hydrogen atom. I have all the energies, but I do not know how to make the diagram.

Answer 1

On a sheet of paper just draw lines to indicate the energy levels. The spacing should become less as you go higher. It would look something like this.
------------- n = 5
------------- n = 4

-------------n = 3


------------- n = 2



---------------n = 1
and continue above n = 5 with the lines getting closer and closer until you get to n = infinity.
