An electron changes its position from orbitn = 4 to n = 2 of an atom. Wavelength of the emitted radiation is :(R-Rydberg's constant)

A

`16/R`

B

`16/(7R)`

C

`16/(5R)`

D

`(16)/(3R)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`1/lamda=R[1/n_1^2-1/n_2^2]=R[1/2^2-1/4^2]=(3R)/16 " ":. lamda=16/(3R)`
