The balmer series occurs between the wavelength of `[R = 1.0968 xx 10^7 m^-1]`.

Answer» For Balmer series,
`(1)/(lamda)=R[(1)/(2^(2))-(1)/(n^(2))]`
where, `n=3,4,5, . . Infty`
To obtain the limits for Balmer series n=3 and `n=infty` respectively.
`lamda_(max)(n=3)=(1)/(R[(1)/(2^(2))-(1)/(3^(2))])=(36)/(5R)`
`=(36)/(5xx1.0968xx10^(7))m=`6564Ã…
`lamda_("min")(n=infty)=(1)/(R[(1)/(2^(2))-(1)/(infty^(2))])=(4)/(R)`
`=(4)/(1.0968xx10^(7))m`
=3647Ã….
