Question
Which transition corresponds to emission of radiation of maximum wavelength?
Advertisements
Solution
`E = (hC)/lambda`
`lambda = (hC)/E`
For maximum wavelength, energy transition should be minimum.
A undergoes minimum energy transition.
A = 2 eV
Thus, photon in A will have the maximum wavelength.
