A spectral line in the Lyman series of hydrogen atom has a wave number of `82200 cm^(-1)` .What transition is resposible for the radiation ? `(R = 109600 cm^(-1))`

Answer

A

Explanation

`bar v = R((1)/(n_(1)^(2)) - (1)/(n_(2)^(2)))`
lyman series `n_(1) = 1,n_(2) = `?
`82200 = 109600 xx ((1)/(1^(2)) - (1)/(n_(2)^(2))) rArr n_(2) = 2`
