The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the statements is/are incorrect, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement A**: "All these spectral lines belonging to the Balmer series in hydrogen spectrum lie in the visible region." - The Balmer series corresponds to transitions where the electron falls to the n=2 energy level from higher levels (n=3, 4, 5, ...). The wavelengths of these transitions fall within the visible spectrum (approximately 400 nm to 700 nm). - **Conclusion**: This statement is **correct**. 2. **Statement B**: "If a light of frequency μ falls over the metal surface having the function hν, the photoelectric effect will take place only if μ is less than or equal to ν₀." - The photoelectric effect occurs when the frequency of the incident light (μ) is greater than or equal to the threshold frequency (ν₀) of the metal. The kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is given by the equation KE = hμ - hν₀. For photoelectrons to be emitted, KE must be greater than or equal to zero, which implies μ must be greater than or equal to ν₀. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **incorrect**. 3. **Statement C**: "The number of photoelectrons ejected from the metal surface in the photoelectric effect depends upon the intensity of the incident radiation." - The intensity of the incident radiation is related to the number of photons striking the surface. A higher intensity means more photons, which can lead to more photoelectrons being emitted, assuming the frequency is above the threshold. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **correct**. 4. **Statement D**: "The series limit wavelength of the Balmer series for hydrogen atom is λ = 4/R, where R is the Rydberg constant." - The series limit for the Balmer series corresponds to the transition from n=2 to n=∞. Using the Rydberg formula, we can calculate the wavelength at this limit: 1/λ = R(1/2² - 1/∞²) = R(1/4). Therefore, λ = 4/R. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **correct**. ### Final Conclusion: The only incorrect statement is **B**.
