Assertion: The electron in the hydrogen ...

Assertion: The electron in the hydrogen atom passes from energy level `n = 4` to the `n = 1` level. The maximum and minimum number of photon that can be emitted are six and one respectively.
Reason: The photons are emitted when electron make a transtition from the higher energy state to the lower energy state.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Maximum number of photon is given by all the transitins possible `=^(4_(C_(2)) = 6`.
Minimum number of transition `=1`, that is, directly jumps from `4` to `1`.
