Detailed Solution

Largest wavelength in the ultraviolet region of the hydrogen spectrum corresponds to the transition from  n=2  to  n=1,
1λ=Rz2(1n121n22) 1122=R(112122)=R(114) R=1122×43 
Transition from  n=  to  n=3 will produce the smallest wavelength in infrared region of hydrogen spectrum so
 1λ=R(1321) 1λ=1122×43×19 1λ=122×3×94=823.5nm
