The wavelength of `m^(th)` line Balmer series for an orbital is `4103Å`. The value of m represents:

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
4
For Balmer series `(1)/(lamda) =R_(H)[(1)/(2^(2))-(1)/(n_(2)^(2))], (1)/(4103xx10^(-8))=109678[(1)/(2^(2))-(1)/(m+2)^(2)]`
`therefore m=4` Thus, `m^(th)` line represents `4^(th)` line of Balmer series.
