The value of `n` for a line Balmer series of hydorgen spectrum having the highest wave length is `4` and `6`.
For Balmer series of hydorgen spectrum, the value `n_1 = 2` and `n_2 = 3, 4, 5`.

Options

A. If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
B. If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
C. If assertion is true but reason is false.
D. If assertion is false but reason is true.

Answer

D

Explanation

We know that the line in Balmer series of hydrogen spectrum with the highest wavelength or lowest energy is between `n_(1)=2andn_(2)=3`. And for Balmer series of hydrogen spectrum, the value of `n_(1)=2andn_(2)=3,4,5`. Therefore the Assertion is false but the Reason is true.
