Question:

Options:

a

b

c

d

Correct Answer:

d

Explanation:

$\text{Total number of radiation emitted when an electron gets deexcited to ground level is given by} \frac{n(n-1)}{2} = 6$

$\Rightarrow n^2 - n -12 = 0 , \Rightarrow n = 4$

$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{\lambda} = R\times 3^2(\frac{1}{1^2} - \frac{1}{4^2} )= 9R\times \frac{15}{16}$

$\Rightarrow \lambda = \frac{16}{135R} = \frac{16\times 91.2nm}{135} = 10.8nm$
