उत्तर
`E_n = -(13.6)/n^2 ev.`Here ground state energy for n = 1, E1 = −13.6eV
Now electron transits from Ep = −0.85 eV to Eq = −3.4 eV
`-0.85 = (-13.6)/n_p^2`
`n_p^2 = 13.6/0.85 =16`
Thus,`n_p = 4`
Again,`-3.4 = (-13.6)/n_q^2`
`n_q^2 = 13.6/3.4 =4 `
`=> n_q = 2`
Thus electron makes transition from n = 4 to n = 2. Hence it is Balmer series. Now, R = 1.0974 × 107 m−1
`1/lambda = R (1/2^2 - 1/n^2) => 1/lambda = 1.0974 xx 10^7 (1/2^2 -1/4^2) =(1.09 xx 10^7 xx 12)/(4 xx 16)`
`1/lambda = 0.2057 xx 10^7`
`lambda = 4.861 xx 10^-7`
`lambda = 4861Å `

Hydrogen spectrum consists of discrete bright lines in a dark background and it is specifically known as hydrogen emission spectrum. There is one more type of hydrogen spectrum that exists where we get dark lines on the bright background, it is known as the absorption spectrum. Balmer found an empirical formula by the observation of a small part of this spectrum and it is represented by
