Assertion: The transition of electrons n3→n2n_3 \rightarrow n_2 in H-atom will emit radiation of higher frequency than n4→n3n_4 \rightarrow n_3.

Reason: Principal shells n2n_2 and n3n_3 have lower energy than n4{n}_4.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
If both Assertion and Reason are correct, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
Option B (If both Assertion and Reason are correct, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion) is correct because both statements are true, but the energy difference between levels is the direct cause of frequency, not just the energy of the levels themselves.
