Explanation:
The Balmer series corresponds to all electron transitions from a higher energy level to

−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−
where
R
=
the Rydberg constant and
n
1
and
n
2
are the energy levels such that
n
2
>
n
1
Since
f
λ
=
c
we can re-write the equation as

λ
=
f
c
=
R
(

or
f

R

=
R

(

)
where
R
′
is the Rydberg constant expressed in energy units (

l
Hz
).
In this problem,
n
1
=
2
, and the frequency of the limiting line is reached
as
n
→
∞
.
Thus,
f
=
lim
n
→
