Question

Of the following transitions in hydrogen atom, the one which gives an absorption line of lowest frequency is : (A) n = 1 to n = 2 . (B) n = 3 to n = 8 (C) n = 2 to n = 1 (D) n = 8 to n = 3

E 8- E 3 is minimum. Also transition from 3 to 8 results in absorption spectrum.

Q. Of the following transitions in hydrogen atom, the one which gives an absorption line of lowest frequency is :

n = 1 to n = 2 .

n = 3 to n = 8

n = 2 to n = 1

n = 8 to n = 3

$E_{8} - E_{3}$ is minimum. Also transition from $3$ to $8$ results in absorption spectrum.

E8​−E3​ is minimum. Also transition from 3 to 8 results in absorption spectrum.

$E_{8} - E_{3}$ is minimum. Also transition from $3$ to $8$ results in absorption spectrum.
