the only electron in the hydrogen atom resides under ordinary conditions in the first orbit. When energy is supplied the electron moves to higher energy orbit depending on the amount of energy absorbed. It emits energy. Lyman series is formed when the electron returns to the lowest orbit while Balmer series is formed when the electron returns to second. Similarly, Paschen, Breakett and Pfund series are formed when electron returns to the third, fourth and fifth orbits from higher energy orbits respectively (as shown in figure). Maximum number of different lines produced when electron jump from nth level to ground level is equal to (n(n-1))/(2). For example in the case of n=4, number of lines produced is 6.(4to3,4to2,4to1,3to2,3to1,2to1). When an electron returns from n_(2) "to"n_(1) state, the number of different lines in the spectrum will be equal to ((n_(2)-n_(1))(n_(2)-n_(1)+1))/(2) If the electron comes back from energy level having energy E_(2) to energy level having energy E_(1), then the difference may be expressed in terms of energy of photon as: E_(2)-E_(1)=DeltaE,lambda=(hc)/(DeltaE),DeltaE=hv(v-"frequency") Since h and c are constants DeltaE corresponds to definite energy: thus each transition from one energy level to another will produce a light of definite wavelength. This is actually observed as a line in the spectrum of hydrogen atom. Wave number of line is given by the formula: barv=RZ^(2)((1)/(n_(1)^(2))-(1)/(n_(2)^(2))) where R is a Rydberg constant (R=1.1xx10^(7)m^(-1)). (i) First line of a series : It is called line of longest wavelength of line of smallest energy'. (ii) Series limit or last line of a series : It is the line of shortest wavelength or line of highest energy. Consider the following statements (i) Spectral lines of He^(+) ion belonging to Balmer series are not in visible range. (ii) In the Balmer series of H-atom maximum lines are in ultraviolet ragion. (iii) 2nd line of Lyman series of He^(+) ion has energy 48.35 eV The above statement (i), (ii), (iii) respectively are (T=True, F=False):
