The ratio of the shortest wavelength of Balmer series to the shortest wavelength of Lyman series for hydrogen atom is _______.
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(4: 1\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\frac{1}{\lambda}=\mathrm{Rz}^2\left(\frac{1}{\mathrm{n}_1^2}-\frac{1}{\mathrm{n}_2^2}\right)\)
\(\frac{1}{\lambda_{\mathrm{L}}}=\mathrm{Rz}^2\left(\frac{1}{1^2}\right)\)
\(\frac{1}{\lambda_{\mathrm{B}}}=\mathrm{Rz}^2\left(\frac{1}{2^2}\right)\)
\(\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{B}}}{\lambda_{\mathrm{I}}}=4: 1\)
