\section{Conclusion}  We studied the Franck-Hertz Experiment, based on our textbook \cite{Melissinos_2003}, for two different atoms: neon and argon. We found the lowest excitation energy level for neon to occur at $16.66 \pm 0.51$ eV when we compensated for the experimentally determined gain value. Whereas, we found the lowest excitation energy level for argon to occur at $10.80 \pm 0.02$ eV. The neon result falls within the expected range but the argon result does not.   %The  argon data was shown to be the most precise measurements. Whereas, the neon data has a large uncertainty due to the period duration of our measurements. We conclude that the excitation energy levels fall within the expected ranges; however, our measurements could be improved.
