The emission spectrum of hydrogen is found to satisfy the expression for the energy change, ∆E (in joules), such that ΔE=2.18×10−18[1n12−1n22]\Delta E = 2.18 \times {10^{ - 18}}\left[ {\frac{1}{{n_1^2}} - \frac{1}{{n_2^2}}} \right] J, where, n1=1,2,3,  …{n_1} = 1,2,3,\; \ldots and n2=2,3,4,…{n_2} = 2,3,4, \ldots The spectral lines correspond to Paschen series are
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
n1=3{n_1} = 3 and n2=4,5,6{n_2} = 4,5,6
The correct answer is C (n1=3{n_1} = 3 and n2=4,5,6{n_2} = 4,5,6) because the Paschen series corresponds to transitions where the electron falls to the n=3 energy level.
