Answer:

Correct Answer: 29. (a)

Solution:

  1. (a) Energy of ground state $13.6 eV$

Energy of first excited state

$=-\frac{13.6}{4}=-3.4 eV$

Energy of second excited state

$=-\frac{13.6}{9}=-1.5 eV$

Difference between ground state and 2nd excited state $=13.6-1.5=12.1 eV$

So, electron can be excited upto 3rd orbit

No. of possible transition

$1 \to 2,1 \to 3,2 \to 3$

So, three lines are possible.
