Given the value of Rydberg constant is 107m-1, the wave number of the last line of the Balmer series in hydrogen spectrum will be

a
0.25×107 m-1
b
2.5×107 m-1
c
0.025×104 m-1
d
0.5×107 m-1

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Here, R=107 m-1The wave number of the last line of the Balmer series in hydrogen spectrum is given by1λ=R122-1∞2=R4=1074=0.25×107 m-1
