Question

For the first two lines of balmer series identify the values of n1 and n2

Answer 1

Answer:

N=1  ; -13.6 eV

N=2 ; -3.4 eV

Explanation:

The question statement is incomplete as it hasn’t provided the graph or the lines from which we have to determine energy levels at n=1 or n=2.

Balmer series;

The Balmer series is among the six states of Hydrogen atom describing the nature of emissions in each stage. Balmer comes just after the Lyman series where the electron in Hydrogen makes a transition from ground state ( n=1) to first excited state (n=2). The energy levels calculated at each stage is given below

N=1  ; -13.6 eV

N=2 ; -3.4 eV
