The value of wavelength in the lyman ser...

The value of wavelength in the lyman series is given as
`lambda=(913.4 n_i^2)/(n_i^2-1)`Å
Calculate the wavelength corresponding to transition from energy level 2,3 and 4. Does wavelength decreases or increase.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will calculate the wavelengths corresponding to the transitions from energy levels 2, 3, and 4 to energy level 1 in the Lyman series using the given formula: \[ \lambda = \frac{913.4 \, n_i^2}{n_i^2 - 1} \, \text{Å} \] where \( n_i \) is the initial energy level. ...
