Question

A certain atom emits light of wavelengths 6000Å and 5000Å for the transitions C to A and B to A respectively. Then :

(i) level C has a higher energy than level B

(ii) level A has a lower energy than both levels B and C

(iii) the wavelength of light emitted for the transition between C and B is 1000 Å

(iv) the wavelength of light emitted for the transition between C and B is 30,000Å

• A. Only (i) and (iii) are correct
• B. Only (ii) and (iv) are correct
• C. Only (i), (ii) and (iii) are correct
• D. Only (iv) is correct

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Only (ii) and (iv) are correct

Answer 2

Energy is inversely proportional to wavelength
