The Lyman series of a hydrogen atom belongs in which category
- A ultraviolet region
- B infrared region
- C visible region
- D None of these
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) ultraviolet region
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The energy levels of a hydrogen atom are given by the Rydberg formula: \(\dfrac{1}{\lambda} = R \left( \dfrac{1}{n_1^2} - \dfrac{1}{n_2^2} \right)\), where \(R\) is the Rydberg constant, \(n_1\) is the lower energy level, and \(n_2\) is the higher energy level. For the Lyman…
