Solution
Sol. $\_\_\_\_$ $\mathrm{n}=4$
$\_\_\_\_$ $\mathrm{n}=3$
$\_\_\_\_$ $\mathrm{n}=2$
$\_\_\_\_$ $\mathrm{n}=1$
Second excited state → first excited state $\mathrm{n}=3 \rightarrow \mathrm{n}=2$
$$
\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\lambda_0}=13.6\left(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2}\right)
$$
Third excited state → second orbit $\mathrm{n}=4 \rightarrow \mathrm{n}=2$
$$
\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\left(20 \lambda_0 / \mathrm{x}\right)}=13.6\left(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{4^2}\right)
$$
(ii) ÷ (i)
$$
\begin{aligned}
& \frac{x}{20}=\frac{\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{4^2}}{\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2}} \\
& x=27
\end{aligned}
