Assertion : The transition of electrons ...

Assertion : The transition of electrons `n_3 to n_2` in H atom will emit greater energy than `n_4 to n_3`
Reason : `n_3` and `n_2` are closer to nucleus than `n_4`

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 the assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion. The difference between the energies of adjacent energy levels decreases as we move away from the nucleus. Thus in H atom
`E_(2)-E_(1)gtE_(3)-E_(2)gtE_(4)-E_(3)....`.
