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

Which transition in the hydrogen spectrum would have the same wavelength as the Balmer type transition from \(n =4\) to \(n =2\) of \(He ^{+}\)spectrum

  1. A \(n =2\) to \(n =1\)
  2. B \(n =1\) to \(n =3\)
  3. C \(n =1\) to \(n =2\)
  4. D \(n =3\) to \(n =4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(n =2\) to \(n =1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(He ^{+}\)ion : \(\frac{1}{\lambda( H )}= R (1)^2\left[\frac{1}{ n _1^2}-\frac{1}{ n _2^2}\right]\) \(\frac{1}{\lambda\left( He ^{+}\right)}= R (2)^2\left[\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{4^2}\right]\) Given \(\lambda( H )=\lambda\left( He ^{+}\right)\)…
