Q25.In the line spectra of hydrogen atom, difference between the largest and the shortest wavelengths of the Lyman โˆ˜ โˆ˜ series is 305 A . The corresponding difference for the Paschan series in A is:________

What This Question Tests

This question requires calculating the difference between the largest and shortest wavelengths for both Lyman and Paschen series using the Rydberg formula for the hydrogen atom.

Concepts Tested

Rydberg formulaLyman seriesPaschen seriesShortest and longest wavelengths in a series

Formulas Used

1/lambda = R_H (1/n_1^2 - 1/n_2^2)
