उत्तर
Rydberg’s formula is given as:
` "hc"/lambda = 21.76 xx 10^(-19) [1/"n"_1^2 - 1/"n"_2^2]`
Where,
h = Planck’s constant = 6.6 × 10−34 Js
c = Speed of light = 3 × 108 m/s
(n1 and n2 are integers)
The shortest wavelength present in the Paschen series of the spectral lines is given for values n1 = 3 and n2 = ∞.
`"hc"/lambda = 21.76 xx 10^(-19) [1/(3)^2 - 1/(∞)^2]`
`lambda = (6.6 xx 10^(-34) xx 3 xx 10^8 xx 9)/(21.76 xx 10^(-19)`
= 8.189 × 10−7 m
= 818.9 nm

Deutrium was discovered in 1932 by Harold Urey by measuring the small change in wavelength for a particular transition in 1H and 2H. This is because, the wavelength of transition depend to a certain extent on the nuclear mass. If nuclear motion is taken into account then the electrons and nucleus revolve around their common centre of mass. Such a system is equivalent to a single particle with a reduced mass µ, revolving around the nucleus at a distance equal to the electron-nucleus separation. Here µ = meM/(me + M) where M is the nuclear mass and m e is the electronic mass. Estimate the percentage difference in wavelength for the 1st line of the Lyman series in 1H and 2H. (Mass of 1H nucleus is 1.6725 × 10–27 kg, Mass of 2H nucleus is 3.3374 × 10–27 kg, Mass of electron = 9.109 × 10–31 kg.)
