Question

Which of the following transitions in hydrogen atoms emit photons of highest frequency?

• A. $n = 2$ to $n = 6$
• B. $n = 6$ to $n = 2$
• C. $n = 2$ to $n = 1$
• D. $n = 1$ to $n = 2$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$n = 2$ to $n = 1$

Answer 2

$hv=Rhcz^{2}\left(\frac{1}{n^{2}_{1}}-\frac{1}{n^{2}_{2}}\right)$
