    The wavelength of the radiation emitted, when in a hydrogen atom electron falls from infinity to stationary state one, would be (Rydberg constant\[=1.097\times {{10}^{7}}{{m}^{-1}})\]

    A) \[91\,\,nm\]

    B) \[192\,\,nm\]

    C) \[406\,\,nm\]

    D) \[9.1\times {{10}^{-8}}nm\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\frac{1}{\lambda }={{\bar{v}}_{H}}={{\bar{R}}_{H}}\left[ \frac{1}{n_{1}^{2}}-\frac{1}{n_{2}^{2}} \right]\]                 \[=1.097\times {{10}^{7}}\left[ \frac{1}{{{1}^{2}}}-\frac{1}{{{\infty }^{2}}} \right]\] \[\therefore \]       \[\lambda =\frac{1}{1.097\times {{10}^{7}}}m\]                 \[=9.11\times {{10}^{-8}}m\]                 \[=91.1\times {{10}^{-9}}m\]                 \[=91.1\,\,nm\]        \[(1\,\,nm={{10}^{-9}}m)\]
