Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

First line of
Balmer series. Second line of
Balmer series. For hydrogen type atoms,
`(1)/(lambda) = RZ^2 ((1)/(n_f^2) - (1)/(n_i^2))`
In the transition form `n_1rarr n_f,`
`:. lambda prop (1)/(Z^2 ((1)/(n_f^2) - (1)/(n_i^2))
`:. lambda_2/lambda_1 = (Z_1^2((1)/(n_f^2)-(1)/(n_i^2))_1)/(Z_2^2((1)/(n_f^2)-(1)/(n_i^2))_2`
`lambda_2 = (lambda_1Z_1^2((1)/(n_f^2)-(1)/(n_i^2))_1)/(Z_2^2((1)/(n_f^2)-(1)/(n_i^2))_2`
Substituting the values we have
`=((6561 Å)(1)^2 ((1)/(2^2)-(1)/(3^2)))/((2)^2((1)/(2^2)- (1)/(4^2))) =1215 Å`
`:.` Correct option is (a).
