Question

calculate the wave no of the line associated with transition in balmer series when electron of hydrogen atom moves from n=1 to n=4 orbit?

Answer 1

The Balmer series in the hydrogen spectrum corresponds to the transition from n1 = 2 to n2 = 3, 4,……… This series lies in the visible region. Calculate the wave number of line associated with the transition in Balmer series when the electron moves to n = 4 orbit. (RH = 109677 cm-1).
