Verified by Experts

Given the radius of orbit from which it started `=1.35225xx10^(-9)m=13.225Å`
In general radius of orbit `=0.529xxn^(2)Å`
`n^(2)=(13.225)/(0.529)=25`
`n^(2)=25impliesn=5`
Given that the
Radius of orbit at which the transition ended = 211.6 pm
`211.6xx10^(-12)m`
`=2.116Å`
Similarly as above
`n^(2)=(2.116)/(0.529)=4`
`n^(2)=4impliesn=2`
`:.` transition takes place from n = 5 to n = 2-level
`:.` spectral lines are obtained in Balmer series (visible region)

Calculate the wave number for the longest wavelength transition in the Balmer series of atomic hydrogen emission spectrum.

(A) Between any two given energy levels, the number of absorption transitions is always less than or equal to the number of emission transitions. (R): Absorption transitions start from the lowest energy level only and may end at any higher energy level. But emission transitions may start from any higher energy level and end at any energy level below it.
