  • $\begingroup$ That is not the same question at all. My question isn't technically about hydrogen. Just in light absorption and emission in general. Read my actual questions. Why isn't everything white? Since excited electrons from absorbing photons fall back down releasing the same photon it absorbed. $\endgroup$
