To calculate the wavelength of the first line of the Lyman series for a hydrogen atom, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Lyman Series The Lyman series corresponds to transitions of electrons in a hydrogen atom from higher energy levels (n ≥ 2) to the first energy level (n = 1). The first line of the Lyman series is the transition from n = 2 to n = 1. ### Step 2: Use the Ionization Energy The ionization energy of hydrogen is given as 13.6 eV. This value corresponds to the energy of the electron when it is completely removed from the atom (n = ∞). ...
