Questions
If the wavelength of the first line of the Balmer series of hydrogen is , find the wavelength of the second line of the series.
detailed solution
Correct option is C
The wavelength of spectral line in Balmer series is given by 1λ=R[122−1n2] For first line of Balmer series, n=3⇒1λ1=R[122−132]=5R36 For second line n=4⇒1λ2=R[122−142]=3R16∴λ2λ1=2027⇒λ2=2027×6561=4860ÅTalk to our academic expert!
