Atoms And Nuclei Question 44

Question: In terms of Rydberg’s constant R, the wave number of the first Balmer line is [MP PMT 1996]

Options:

A) R

B) 3R

C) 5R36

D) 8R9

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

Wave number =1λ=R(1n121n22) For first Balmer line n1= 2, n2=3
Wave number =R(122132)=R(949×4)=5R36
