For electrons in some atom to absorb a photon having some amount of energy, must this energy be (exactly) equal to the difference between the two energy levels?, can't it be absorbed when its energy is more than that difference?
Because in the case of (exact-equality), it would be hard for an electron in a hydrogen atom to absorb photons emitted by different atoms, since the differences of their energy levels can hardly (or even impossibly) match that of hydrogen's.
Consequently, hydrogen receives only from hydrogen..?!
