The wavelength of the first spectral line in the Balmer series of hydrogen atom is 6561 Å. The wavelength of the second spectral line in the Balmer series of singly- ionized helium atom is :

Answer»

1215 Å
1640 Å
2430 Å
4687 Å

Solution :`1/(6561)=R (1/4-1/9)=(5R)/(36)`
`1/lambda=4R (1/4-1/(16))=(3R XX 4)/(16)`
`lambda=1215Å`
