Which of the following transitions in hydrogen atoms emit photons...

Which of the following transitions in hydrogen atoms emit photons of highest frequency?

Options

  1. An=2n=2 to n=6n=6
  2. Bn=6n=6 to n=2n=2
  3. Cn=2n=2 to n=1n=1
  4. Dn=1n=1 to n=2n=2

Correct answer

C. n=2n=2 to n=1n=1

Step-by-step solution

hv=Rhcz⁡2(1n12−1n22)h v=\operatorname{Rhcz}^2\left(\frac{1}{\mathrm{n}_1^2}-\frac{1}{\mathrm{n}_2^2}\right)
