Question

calculate the wavelength of limiting lines in lyman series​

Answer 1

Explanation:

wavelength of limiting line of Lyman series is 911 A˚. The atomic number of the element which emits minimum wavelength of 0.7 A˚ of X-rays will be. A

Answer 2

The wavelength of limiting line of Lyman series is 911
