What will be the shortest and longest wavelength of absorption lines of hydrogen gas containing atoms in ground state? Given Z=1, R=109721.5

Explanation

To find the shortest and longest wavelengths of absorption lines for hydrogen gas in the ground state, we will use the Rydberg formula for hydrogen:

\[ \frac{1}{\lambda} = RZ^2 \left( \frac{1}{n_1^2} - \frac{1}{n_2^2} \right) \]

Where:
- \( \lambda \) is the wavelength,
