in the Bohr hydrogen atom, the electronic transition emmiting light of longest wavelength is

A

`n=2` to`n=3`

B

`n=4` to `n=3`

C

`n=3` to `n=2`

D

`n=2`to`n=1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b

Emitting light of longest wavelength will have low energy and if the principle quantum number increases,the difference between the energy of two orbits decreases. Therefore,n=4 to n=3 refers the lower energy.
