MCQ
Which transition in the hydrogen spectrum would have the same wavelength as the Balmer type transition from $n =4$ to $n =2$ of $He ^{+}$spectrum
  • $n =2$ to $n =1$
  • B
    $n =1$ to $n =3$
  • C
    $n =1$ to $n =2$
  • D
    $n =3$ to $n =4$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$n =2$ to $n =1$
a
$He ^{+}$ion :

$\frac{1}{\lambda( H )}= R (1)^2\left[\frac{1}{ n _1^2}-\frac{1}{ n _2^2}\right]$

$\frac{1}{\lambda\left( He ^{+}\right)}= R (2)^2\left[\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{4^2}\right]$

Given $\lambda( H )=\lambda\left( He ^{+}\right)$

$R (1)^2\left[\frac{1}{ n _1^2}-\frac{1}{ n _2^2}\right]= R (4)\left[\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{4^2}\right]$

$\frac{1}{ n _1^2}-\frac{1}{ n _2^2}=\frac{1}{1^2}-\frac{1}{2^2}$

On comparing $n _1=1$ and $n _2=2$
