Atoms And Nuclei Question 138

Question: The energy of the highest energy photon of Balmer series of hydrogen spectrum is close to [UPSEAT 2004]

Options:

A) 13.6 eV

B) 3.4 eV

C) 1.5 eV

D) 0.85 eV

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

E=13.6[1n121n22]. For highest energy in Balmer series n1=2 and n2= Þ E=13.6[1(2)21()2]=3.4,eV
