To Explain the Line Emission Spectra of Hydrogen in the Visible

Question 58

Multiple Choice

To explain the line emission spectra of hydrogen in the visible region, Balmer proposed the following formula 1λ=R(1221n2) \frac{1}{\lambda}=\mathrm{R}\left(\frac{1}{2^{2}}-\frac{1}{n^{2}}\right) . According to this formula for what value of n would the energy of the emitted wavelength be the greatest?


A) 3
B) 4
C) 5
