Question

Calculate the wave length of limiting lines in luman series

Answer 1

Answer:

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=∞.

For longest wavelength in Lyman series (i.e., first line), the energy difference in two states showing transition should be minimum, i.e., n2=2.
