The ratio of energies of photons produced due to the transition of an electron of hydrogen atom from its
i. second permitted energy level to the first level and
ii. the highest permitted energy level to the first energy level is

  1. A \(1:2\)
  2. B \(3:4\)
  3. C \(2:1\)
  4. D \(4:1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(3:4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(E_n = -\frac{13.6}{n^2} \text{ eV}\) \(E_{\text{photon}} = |E_{n_f} - E_{n_i}| = 13.6 \left( \frac{1}{n_f^2} - \frac{1}{n_i^2} \right)\) \(E_1 = 13.6 \left( \frac{1}{1^2} - \frac{1}{2^2} \right) = 13.6 \left( 1 - \frac{1}{4} \right) = 13.6 \times \frac{3}{4}\)…
