If the wavelength of the first line of the Lyman series for the hydrogen atom is

1210\mathop {\text{A}}\limits^ \circ

, then what will be the wavelength of the first line of the Balmer series of the hydrogen spectrum?

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

6434\mathop {\text{A}}\limits^ \circ

Option A (

6434\mathop {\text{A}}\limits^ \circ

) is correct because it is calculated using the Rydberg formula for the first line of the Balmer series, given the wavelength of the first Lyman series line.
