Question:

The energy diagram of hydrogen atom is given below. Arrange the wavelengths corresponding to different emissions in increasing order.

Options:

$λ_D>λ_B>λ_A>λ_C$

$λ_D>λ_C>λ_B>λ_A$

$λ_A>λ_C>λ_B>λ_D$

$λ_A>λ_B>λ_C>λ_D$

Correct Answer:

$λ_A>λ_C>λ_B>λ_D$

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → $λ_A>λ_C>λ_B>λ_D$

Change in Energy, $Δ∝\frac{1}{λ}$   [ΔE = Change in energy]

$λ_A>λ_C>λ_B>λ_D$ as → $ΔE_A<ΔE_C<ΔE_B<ΔE_D$
