    Which of the following transitions have minimum wavelengths?

    A) \[{{n}_{4}}\to {{n}_{1}}\]             

    B) \[{{n}_{2}}\to {{n}_{1}}\]

    C)  \[{{n}_{4}}\to {{n}_{2}}\]            

    D) \[{{n}_{3}}\to {{n}_{1}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     \[E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }\]or \[E\propto \frac{1}{\lambda }\] Thus a decrease in wave length represents an increase in energy For\[{{n}_{4}}\xrightarrow{{}}{{n}_{1}},\]transition. These are greater the energy difference and lesser will be wavelength. Thus, for\[{{n}_{4}}\xrightarrow{{}}{{n}_{1}}\]transition has minimum wavelength
