JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 2. structure of atom

For any given series of spectral lines of atomic hydrogen, let \(\Delta \bar V\, = \,\Delta {\bar V_{\max }}\, - \,\Delta {\bar V_{\min }}\) be the difference in maximum and minimum frequencies in \(cm^{-1}.\) the ration \(\Delta {\bar V_{Lymann}}/\,\Delta {\bar V_{Balmer}}\) is

  1. A \(5:4\)
  2. B \(4:1\)
  3. C \(9:4\)
  4. D \(27:5\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(9:4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\Delta {{\bar V}_{Lymann}} = \frac{{{R_H}}}{4}\) \(\Delta {{\bar V}_{Balmer}} = \frac{{{R_H}}}{9}\) \( \Rightarrow \frac{{\Delta {{\bar V}_{Lymann}}}}{{\Delta {{\bar V}_{Balmer}}}} = \frac{9}{4}\) Formula…
