    The wavelength of first member of Lyman series is \[1215\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]. The wavelength of \[{{H}_{\alpha }}\] line is:

    A) \[6561\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]

    B) \[5464\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]

    C) \[800\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]     

    D) \[4840\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Key Idea: For \[{{H}_{\alpha }}\] line\[{{n}_{1}}=2,\,\,{{n}_{2}}=3\]. From the relation                 \[\frac{1}{\lambda }=R\left( \frac{1}{n_{1}^{2}}-\frac{1}{n_{2}^{2}} \right)\] For Lyman series,                 \[\frac{1}{{{\lambda }_{L}}}=R\left( \frac{1}{1}-\frac{1}{{{2}^{2}}} \right)=\frac{3R}{4}\]                 ? (i) For \[{{H}_{\alpha }}\] line,\[{{n}_{1}}=2,\,\,{{n}_{2}}=3\]                 \[\frac{1}{{{\lambda }_{{{H}_{\alpha }}}}}=R\left( \frac{1}{{{2}^{2}}}-\frac{1}{{{3}^{2}}} \right)=\frac{5R}{36}\]                ? (ii) From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get                 \[\frac{{{\lambda }_{{{H}_{\alpha }}}}}{{{\lambda }_{L}}}=\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{36}{5}=\frac{27}{5}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\lambda }_{{{H}_{\alpha }}}}=\frac{27}{5}\times 1215=6561{\AA}\]
