Using Balmer empirical formula , obtain the wavelengths of `H_(alpha),H_(beta),H_(gamma),........H_(oo)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Balmer empirical formula is given by `(1)/(lamda)=R(1/2^(2)-1/n^(2))`
For `H_(alpha)` line , put `n=3,1/lamda_(alpha)=R(5/36) " where "R=1.097xx10^(7)m^(-1)` this gives `lamda_(alpha)=656.3mm`
For `H_(alpha)` line , put `n=4,1/lamda_(beta)=R(3/16)` , this gives `H_(beta) "line " lamda_(beta)= 486.1nm`
similarly for `lamda_(gamma), "put " n = 5,H_(gamma)=lamda_(gamma)=434.1nm`
for `lamda_(delta), "put " n = 6,H_(delta)=lamda_(delta)=410.2nm`
for `lamda_(oo),` called series limit , put `n=oo,lamda_(oo) = 364.6nm`
