The balmer series for the H-atom can be ob-served

A

if we measure the frequencies of light emitted when an excited atom falls to the ground state.

B

if we measure the frequencies of light emitted due to transitions between excited states and the first excited state.

C

in any transition in a H-atom.

D

as a sequence of frequencies with the higher frequencies getting closely packed.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b,d
Balmer series for the H-atom can be observed by measuring the frequencies of light emitted due to transitions between excited states and first excited state (n = 2). Also, the sequence of frequencies with higher frequencies is seen getting closely packed.
