Question
If the wavelength of the first member of Lyman series of hydrogen is λ. The wavelength of the second member will be
Select the correct option:
A
$\frac{27}{32} \lambda$
B
$\frac{32}{27} \lambda$
C
$\frac{27}{5} \lambda$
D
$\frac{5}{27} \lambda$
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
Sol. $$ \begin{aligned} & \frac{1}{\lambda}=\frac{13.6 \mathrm{z}^2}{\mathrm{hc}}\left[\frac{1}{1^2}-\frac{1}{2^2}\right] \ldots . . \\ & \frac{1}{\lambda^{\prime}}=\frac{13.6 \mathrm{z}^2}{\mathrm{hc}}\left[\frac{1}{1^2}-\frac{1}{3^2}\right] \end{aligned} $$ On dividing (i) \& (ii) $$ \lambda^{\prime}=\frac{27}{32} \lambda $$
