(c) Key idea Excess energy of e- appears as photon.

 From Rydberg's formula,

           1λ=R1n12-1n12=R122-122=5R361λ=R 132-142=7R1441λ/1λ'=5R36+7R144λ'λ=5R36×1447R=207λ'=207λ

(b) Given, Rydberg constant, R=107m-1

 For last time in Balmer series, n2=,n1=2.

As we know that

Explanation

In hydrogen atom, wavelength of characteristic spectrum

1λ=Rz2 [1/n12-1/n22]

For Lyman series n1=1 , n2=2

1λ1= =Rz2[1/(1)2-1/(2)2] …(i)

For Balmer series n1=2, n2=3

1λ2==Rz2 [1/(2)2-1(3)2] … (ii)

Dividing Eq. (ii) by Eq. (i) we get

λ1λ2=5/36 x 4/3 =5/27

Explanation

(a) Wavelength for Lyman series 

λL=1/R(1-1/4)=4/3R

and wavelength for Balmer series

λB=1/R(1/4-1/9)=1/R(5/36)=36/5R

   λLB=4/3R x 5R/36=5/27

       =>λLB=5:27  

Electron in hydrogen atom first jumps from third exicted state to second exicted state and then from second exicted to the first excited state. The ratio of the wavelengths λ1:λ2 emitted in the two cases is

Explanation

Here, for wavelength λ1

n1=4 and n2=3

and for λ2, n1=3 and n2=2 

We have hcλ=-13.61n22-1n12

So, for λ1

       hcλ1=-13.6142-132

         hcλ1=13.67144                                ...(i)

Similarly, for λ2

       hcλ2=-13.6132-122

         hcλ2=13.6536                    ...(ii)

Hence, from Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get 

                     λ1λ2=207

An electron of a stationary hydrogen atom passes from the fifth energy level to the ground level. The velocity that the atom acquired as a result of photon emission will be
