    Hydrogen atom is excited by means of a monochromatic radiations of wavelength \[975\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]. In emission spectrum the number of possible lines are :

    A)  2                                            

    B)  4    

    C)  5                            

    D)         6

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Energy of radiations\[E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }\] \[\begin{align}   & =\frac{6.6\times {{10}^{-34}}\times 3\times {{10}^{8}}}{975\times {{10}^{-10}}\times 1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}}eV \\  & =12.75\,eV \\ \end{align}\] Energy of hydrogen atom in first energy level =-13.6 eV Energy of atom after absorbing radiations =-13.6+12.75=-0.85 eV Number of spectral lines                                 \[\begin{align}   E=\frac{13.6}{{{n}^{2}}} & \\   {{n}^{2}}=\frac{13.6}{0.85} & \\ \end{align}\]                   \[{{n}^{2}}=16\Rightarrow n=4\]
