Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 527

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given: E1 is the energy for the transition from n=2→n=1 and E2 is the energy for the transition from n=3→n=2. Now the excitation energy is given as, ∆E=-13.6 1n12-1n22 ev For the first case, E1α 112-122=34 For the second case,…
