Answer» I (I) For transtions n=1 to n=4 energy is absorbed (II) `DeltaE_(2)prop((1)/(3^(2))-(1)/(4^(2)))prop((1)/(9)-(1)/(16))prop(7)/(144)prop0.0486` (III) `DeltaE_(3)prop((1)/(1^(2))-(1)/(4^(2)))prop((1)/(1)-(1)/(16))prop(15)/(16)prop0.9375` (IV) `DeltaE_(4)prop((1)/(2^(2))-(1)/(4^(2)))prop((1)/(4)-(1)/(16))prop(12)/(64)prop0.1875` `:.` In option III energy of emitted photon is maximum |
