Questions  

The frequency of emission line for any transition in positronium atom (consisting of a positron and an electron) is x times the frequency for the corresponding line in the case of H atom, where x is

a
2
b
1/22
c
22
d
1/2

detailed solution

Correct option is D

Rydberg's constant determines the frequencies. We have R∝m so, modified R for positronium atom is half of H atom. Hence, frequencies are reduced to half.
