The Balmer series in the hydrogen spectr...

The Balmer series in the hydrogen spectrum corresponds to the transition from ` n_(1)=2` to `n_(2)=3,4`........ This series lies in the visible region. Calculate the wave number of line associated with the transition in Balmer series when the electron moves to n=4 orbit.
`(R_(H)=109677cm^(-1))`

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the wave number of the line associated with the transition in the Balmer series when the electron moves to the n=4 orbit, we can use the Rydberg formula for hydrogen: \[ \frac{1}{\lambda} = R_H \left( \frac{1}{n_1^2} - \frac{1}{n_2^2} \right) \] Where: - \( \lambda \) is the wavelength, ...
