The ratio of the highest to the lowest wavelength of Lyman series is
- A
- B
- C
- D
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
According to the question, For Lyman series, n1=1. For shortest wavelength in Lyman series (i.e., series limit), the energy difference in two states showing transition should be maximum, i.e.,n2=∞. So. 1λ=RH [112-2∞2] λ= 1109678=9.117x10-6cm…
