The diagram below shows the lowest four energy levels for an electron in a hypothetical atom. The electron is excited to the $-1\,eV$ level and transitions to the lowest energy state $(-12\,eV)$ by emitting exactly two photons. Which of the following energies could not belong to either of the photons (in $eV$)?
