Using Bohr theory calculate the frequency and wavelenght of a photon emitted during transition from n=5 to n=2 state in hydrogen atom

Open in App
Solution

According to Bohr's theory ,
v¯ = R1n2- 1n12
n = 2 , n1 = 5
v¯ = 109677122- 152v¯ = 23032.17 cm-1λ = 1v¯ = 123032.17 = 4.3417 ×10-5 cm = 434.1 nm

λ = 434.1 nm
