According to Bohr's theory of hydrogen atom, the ratio of the maximum and minimum wavelength of Lyman series will be
Options
- A3: 4
- B4: 3
- C2: 5
- D5: 2
Correct answer
B. 4: 3
Step-by-step solution
1 = R ( 1 n ₁^2 - 1 n ₂^2 ) For Lyman series, n ₁=1 aligned 1 _ & =R ( 1 1^2 - 1 2^2 )= 3 4 R 1 _ & =R ( 1 1^2 - 1 ^2 )=R & _ _ aligned = 4 3
