Given the value of Rydberg constant is 1...

Given the value of Rydberg constant is `10^7m^(-1)`, the wave number of the last line of the Balmer series in hydrogen spectrum will be

A

`0.5xx10^(7)m^(-1)`

B

`0.25xx10^7m^(-1)`

C

`2.5xx10^7m^(-1)`

D

`0.025xx10^4m^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`1/lambda=R(1/(n_1^2)-1/(n_2^2))`
`therefore` The wave number of the last line of the Balmer series,
`barnu=1/lambda=10^7(1/2^2-1/oo^2)=0.25xx10^7m^(-1)`
