Solution

Radius of ground state of hydrogen atom
= 0.53 Å = 0.53 x 10-10 m
According to de Brogile relation
2πr = nλ
For ground state n = 1
2 x 3.14 x 0.53 x 10-10 = 1 x λ
∴ λ = 3.32 x 10-10 m
       = 3.32 Å

Name the series in the atomic spectra of the hydrogen atom that falls in the ultra violet region. 


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 absorption spectrum. Balmer found an empirical formula by the observation of a small part of this spectrum and it is represented by
