• Objective: Record and evaluate the Franck-Hertz curve for mercury

The Franck-Hertz experiment for mercury involves observing how energy is transferred from electrons as a result of inelastic collision while passing through mercury vapour. The transfer of energy occurs in discrete steps corresponding to the excitement by such collision of distinct energy level transitions in the mercury atoms. The experiment thus provides confirmation of the Bohr model of the atom and the discrete energy levels described by that model.
