Select the correct option:
A
n = 4 to n = 3
B
n = 2 to n = 1
C
n = 5 to n = 4
D
n = 3 to n = 2
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
ΔE = 13.6 [ 1/n₁² − 1/n₂² ] = hν
It is maximum if n₁ = 1 and n₂ = 2
n = 5 ........................................ −0.544 eV
n = 4 ........................................ −0.850 eV
n = 3 ........................................ −1.511 eV
n = 2 ........................................ −3.4 eV
n = 1 ........................................ −13.6 eV
