Which of the following transitions of ion will give rise to spectral line which has same wavelength as the spectral line in hydrogen atom?
Options
- A to
- B to
- C to
- DNone of these
Correct answer
A. to
Step-by-step solution
Let the transition of electron in hydrogen atom gives wavelength for transition from , then
\lambda=\lambda_1, Z=1, m=n_1, n=n_2 R(1)^2 \left(\frac{1}{n_1^2}-\frac{1}{n_2^2}\right)=R\left(\frac{1}{n_1^2}-\frac{1}{n_2^2}\right)\mathrm{He}^{+}n_4 to n_3\lambda_2\quad \lambda_1=\lambda_2\Rightarrow R\left(\frac{1}{n_1^2}-\frac{1}{n_2^2}\right)=R \left[\frac{1}{ \left(\frac{n_3}{2}\rright)^2}-\f frac{1}{\left(\frac{n_4}{2}\right)^2}\right]On comparing beth sides, we getn_1=} n_2= The value of must be an integer, as they denote principal quantum number.
If , then the given condition is satisfied.
