Q. In which region of the electromagnetic spectrum does the Lyman series of hydrogen atom lie ?

UP CPMTUP CPMT 2007

Solution:

Lyman series o f hydrogen atom lie in the ultra violet region have the wavelengths given by
$\frac{1}{\lambda}=R \left[\frac{1}{1^{2}}-\frac{1}{n^{2}}\right] $
where $n = 2, 3, 4,\dots$
