The wavelength of photon emitted by a hydrogen atom when an electron makes a transition from n = 2 to n = 1 state is. (Take the value of the Rydberg constant, \(R = 1.0973 \times 10^7 \text{ m}^{-1}\))

  1. A \(121.5nm\)
  2. B \(194.8nm\)
  3. C \(490.7nm\)
  4. D \(913.3nm\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(121.5nm\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left( \frac{1}{n_f^2} - \frac{1}{n_i^2} \right) \) \( \frac{1}{\lambda} = 1.0973 \times 10^7 \text{ m}^{-1} \left( \frac{1}{1^2} - \frac{1}{2^2} \right) \)…
