Question

The wavelength of the first line in Balmer series in the hydrogen spectrumis . What is the wavelength of the second line. 

Solution

Correct option is

The first line corresponds to n = 3. Therefore, 

         

              

              

we have seen above that . Hence 

       

            

  

            .
