Question

Winte energy level diagram for Lyman and Balmer series of the hydrogen ahoo.

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Lyman Series (U.V.)

In this series the transition occur from n>1 to the first orbit that isn=1. This represents the Lyman Series of the Hydrogen atom.

It is mainly observed in the ultraviolet region of the EM wave.

1/lamda=R(1/1^2-1/n^2

Where n=2,3

This is further divided into sublevels as α−lymanfor n=2 and so on.

2 Blamer Series (visible)

In this series the transition occur from n>2to the second orbit that isn=2. This represents the Balmer Series of the Hydrogen atom.

It is mainly observed in the Visible region of the EM wave.

1/lamda=R(1/2^2-1/n^2

Where, n=3,4

This is further divided into sublevels as α−Balmerfor n=3and so on.
