The wavelength of second Balmer line in hydrogen &spectrum is 600 nm The wavelength for its third line in Lyman series is

  1. A \(800 \mathrm{nm}\)
  2. B \(600 \mathrm{nm}\)
  3. C \(400 \mathrm{nm}\)
  4. D None of the above
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) None of the above

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{1}{\lambda}=R\left[\frac{1}{n_{1}^{2}}-\frac{1}{n_{2}^{2}}\right]\) For Balmer series, \(\begin{array}{l} \therefore n_{1}=2, n_{2}=3,4,5 \ldots \\ \frac{1}{\lambda_{B}}=R\left[\frac{1}{2^{2}}-\frac{1}{4^{2}}\right] \end{array}\)…
