Question
The shortest wavelength of hydrogen atom in Lyman series is . The longest wavelength in Balmer series of He+ is (A) 5 9 (B) 5 36 (C) 5 (D) 5
Answer: A
💡 Solution & Explanation
(1) For Hydrogen atom (Z = 1) : H 1 = RH (1)2 2 1 Last line (2) For He+ atom (Z = 2) : He = RH (2)2 2 1 1 = RH 9 1 = RH 5 first line From (1) & (2) H He = 9 He = 9
