Quick Facts

  • Line spectrum of hydrogen is considered one the most difficult concept.

  • 20 Questions around this concept.

Solve by difficulty

Paschen series and Bracket series lies in region

The wavelength (in nm) of the radiation emitted, when in a hydrogen atom electron falls from infinity to stationary state 1, would be 

$\left(\right.$ Rydberg constant $\left.=1.097 \times 10^7 \mathrm{~m}^{-1}\right)$

In the hydrogen atom, an electron transits from the second to the first excited state and then to the ground state. Determine the spectral series that these transitions fall under.discover the ratio of the radiation's emission's wavelengths in the two scenarios.

Concepts Covered - 1

Line spectrum of hydrogen

Line Spectrum of Hydrogen-like atoms

\frac{1}{\lambda }= RZ^{2}\left ( \frac{1}{n_{1}^{2}}-\frac{1}{n_{2}^{2}} \right )

Where R is called Rhydberg constant, R = 1.097 X 107,  Z is atomic number

n1= 1, 2, 3….

n2= n1+1, n1+2 ……

Lyman Series spectrum:

Where

n1= 1 and  n2= 2, 3, 4....

This lies in Ultraviolet region.

Balmer Series Spectrum:

Where n1= 2 and  n2= 3, 4, 5, 6....

It lies in visible region.

Paschen, Bracket and Pfund Series spectrums:

these lies in Infrared Region.
