Marks: +1, -0
A hydrogen atom makes a transition from n=5 to n=1 orbit. The wavelength of photon emitted is λ. The wavelength of photon emitted when it makes a transition from n=5 to n=2 orbit is
Solution:
In 1st case
1λ=R[112−152]
or, 1λ=R[1−125]=R[2425]
∴R=2524×1λ
In 2nd case
1λ′=R[122−152]
or, 1λ′=R[14−125]=R×21100
or, 1λ′=2524×1λ×21100
or, 1λ′=2196λ
∴λ′=9621λ=327λ
