The longest wavelength of the Lyman series for hydrogen atom is the same as the wavelength of a certain line in the spectrum of `He^+` when the electron makes a trensiton from `n rarr 2`. The value of n isA. 3B. 4C. 5D. 6 |

Answer» Correct Answer - B Longest wavelength of Lyman series means, minimum energy corresponding n =2 to n=1. `:. (E_2 - E_1)_H = (E_n - E_2)_(He+)` `:. (-13.6)/((2))^2 +(13.6)/((1))^2 = (-13.6(Z)^2/(n^2 + (13.6(Z)^2/((2))^2` Putting Z =2, we get n =4. |
