    In a hydrogen like atom, when an electron jumps from the M-shell to the L-shell, the wavelength of emitted radiation is\[\lambda \]. If an electron jumps from N-shell to the L-shell, the wavelength of emitted radiation will be [JEE  Main Online Paper (Held on 11-jan-2019 Evening)]

    A) \[\frac{25}{16}\lambda \]                      

    B)               \[\frac{27}{20}\lambda \]

    C) \[\frac{16}{25}\lambda \]                                  

    D)   \[\frac{20}{27}\lambda \]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    In a hydrogen atom when an electron jumps from M-Shell to N-shell then, \[\frac{1}{\lambda }=K\left( \frac{1}{{{2}^{2}}}-\frac{1}{{{3}^{2}}} \right)=\frac{5}{36}K\]                           ?(i) for N to L shell, \[\frac{1}{\lambda '}=K\left( \frac{1}{{{2}^{2}}}-\frac{1}{{{4}^{2}}} \right)=\frac{3}{16}K=\frac{3}{16}\times \frac{36}{5\lambda }=\frac{27}{20\lambda }\] \[\therefore \]\[\lambda '=\frac{20\lambda }{27}\]
