1/λ = RZ2[ 1/n12 - 1/n22 ]
N1= 2
N2= 7
R = 1.1×107
1/λ = 1.1×107[ 1/4 - 1/49 ]
Λ = 396nm

the wavenumber of fifth line in the balmer series is equal to  25.2 x 10⁹ m-¹

Explanation:

  • The wavenumber of a substance is the inverse of the wavelength. Since the series is Balmer hence the initial orbit is n= 2 and the final orbit  n= 7.
  • This is because it is the fifth line starting from number 3.

The formula of wave number is given below,

Wave number , w = R Z ²[ 1/ n1 - 1/  n2 ]

  • Standard value of R = 1.1×10⁷

1/λ = 1.1 × 10⁷ [ 1/2² - 1/7² ]

  • Hence the wavenumber is equal to  25.2 x 10⁹ m¹
