Assertion (A): For Balmer series of hydrogen spectrum, the value of n₁ = 2 and n₂ = 3, 4, 5 ...
Reason (R): The value of n for a line in Balmer series having the highest wavelength is n₁=4 and n₂=6.
0.Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.
1.Both A and R are correct but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
2.A is correct but R is incorrect.
3.R is correct but A is incorrect.
Explanation
Assertion is correct: Balmer series has n₁=2, n₂=3,4,5.... Reason is incorrect: the line with highest wavelength (lowest energy) in Balmer series corresponds to n₁=2, n₂=3 (not 4 and 6).
