If the wavelength of the nth n^{\text{th }} line of Lyman series is equal to the de-Broglie wavelength of electron in initial orbit of a hydrogen like element (Z=11)(Z=11). Find the value of nn.

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

n^{\text{th }}lineofLymanseriesmeanstransitionfromline of Lyman series means transition from(n+1)thstatetofirststate.th state to first state.1λ=RZ2[1−1(n+1)2] de-Broglie wavelength, λ=hmv=hrmvr=(2π)(hr)(n+1)h=2πr(n+1)1λ=(n+1)2πr\begin{aligned}& \frac{1}{\lambda}=R Z²\left[1-\frac{1}{(n+1)^2}\right]\\ & \text{ de-Broglie wavelength, } \quad \lambda=\frac{h}{m v}=\frac{h r}{m v r}=\frac{(2 \pi)(h r)}{(n+1) h}=\frac{2 \pi r}{(n+1)}\\ & \frac{1}{\lambda}=\frac{(n+1)}{2 \pi r}\\ & \end{aligned}orEquating(i)and(ii),wegetor Equating (i) and (ii), we get\left(\frac{n+1}{2 \pi r}\right)=RZ2[n(n+2)(n+1)2]R Z²\left[\frac{n(n+2)}{(n+1)^2}\right]Now, as r∝n2Zr=(n+1)211r0\begin{aligned}& r \propto \frac{n^2}{Z}\\ & r=\frac{(n+1)^2}{11}r_0 \end{aligned}\therefore \quad r=(n+1)211\frac{(n+1)^2}{11}r_0 Substituting in equations (iii), we get 112πr0=R(11)2(n)(n+2)(n+1)\frac{11}{2 \pi r_0}=\frac{R(11)^2(n)(n+2)}{(n+1)}or (n+1)=\left(1.09 ×\times10^7\right)(11)(2 \pi) \times\left(0.529 ×\times10^{-10}\right)\left(n^2+2 n\right) Solving this equation we get,n=24
