A monochromatic radiation of wavelength \(\lambda\) is incident on a hydrogen sample in ground state. The sample subsequently emits radiation of six different wavelengths, then the value of \(\lambda\) is [Use ch \(=1242 \mathrm{eV}-\mathrm{m}\) ]

  1. A 80 nm
  2. B 85.5 nm
  3. C 97.4 nm
  4. D 100.2 nm
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 97.4 nm

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Number of line emitted \(=6, n_i=1, n_f=4\) \(\begin{aligned} \frac{n(n-1)}{2} & =6 \\ n^2-n-12 & =0 \\ (n-4)(n+3) & =0 \\ n=4, n & =-3 \quad \text{(Not possible)} \end{aligned}\) Using, \(\frac{1}{\lambda}=R \sqrt{\left(\frac{1}{n_i^2}-\frac{1}{n_f^2}\right)}\)…
