    When the electrons in hydrogen atom jumps from the orbit with\[n=2\]to\[n=1\]the frequency of emitted radiation is o. If the electron jumps from the orbit with\[n=3\]to\[n=2\]frequency of the emitted is

    A)  \[\frac{5}{27}\upsilon \]

    B)  \[\frac{5}{36}\upsilon \]

    C)  \[\frac{3}{4}\upsilon \]             

    D)  none of the above

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    : According to Bohrs theory of hydrogen spectrum, \[\frac{1}{{{\lambda }_{1}}}=R\left( \frac{1}{n_{1}^{2}}-\frac{1}{n_{2}^{2}} \right)\]for Lyman series\[=\frac{3R}{4}\] \[\frac{1}{{{\lambda }_{2}}}=R\left( \frac{1}{n_{2}^{2}}-\frac{1}{n_{3}^{2}} \right)\]for Balmer series\[\frac{2R}{36}\] \[\therefore \]\[\frac{{{\lambda }_{1}}}{{{\lambda }_{2}}}=\frac{5R}{36}\times \frac{4}{3R}=\frac{5}{27}\] Or \[\frac{{{\upsilon }_{2}}}{{{\upsilon }_{1}}}=\frac{5}{27}\]or\[{{\upsilon }_{2}}=\frac{5}{27}{{\upsilon }_{1}}=\frac{5\upsilon }{27}\] \[\therefore \]Frequency emitted\[=\frac{5}{27}\upsilon \].
