The wavelength of second line of Balmer series in terms of Rydberg constant R is
- A \( \frac{36}{5R} \)
- B \( \frac{16}{5R} \)
- C \( \frac{16}{3R} \)
- D \( \frac{36}{3R} \)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \( \frac{16}{3R} \)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left( \frac{1}{n_f^2} - \frac{1}{n_i^2} \right) \) \( \frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left( \frac{1}{2^2} - \frac{1}{4^2} \right) \) \( \frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left( \frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{16} \right) \) \( \frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left( \frac{4-1}{16} \right) \)…

(i) Why only certain elements possess the remarkable property of forming coordination compounds ?
(ii) Why the bonds in coordination compounds have directional properties ?
(iii) Why coordination compounds have characteristics magnetic and optical properties ?
Many approaches have been put forth to explain the nature of bonding in coordination compounds vix. Valence Bond Theory (VBT), Crystal Field Theory (CFT), Ligand Field Theory (LFT) and Molecular Orbital Theory (MOT).
We shall focus our attention on elementary treatment of the application of VBT and CFT to coordination compounds.
According to this theory, the metal atom or ion under the influence of ligands can use its ( \(n -1\) )d, ns np or ns, np, nd orbitals for hybridisation to yield a set of equivalent orbitals of definite geometry such as octahedral, tetrahedral, square planar and so on.
These hybridised orbitals are allowed to overlap with ligand orbitals that can donate electron pairs for bonding.
