The wavelength of the first Balmer line caused by a transition from the $n=3$ level to the $n=2$ level in hydrogen is $\lambda_1$. The wavelength of the line caused by an electronic transition from $n=5$ to $n=3$ is

  • A
    $\frac{375}{128} \lambda_1$
  • B
    $\frac{125}{64} \lambda_1$
  • C
    $\frac{64}{125} \lambda_1$
  • D
    $\frac{128}{375} \lambda_1$

The energy of $He^{+}$ ion in its first excited state is $......eV$ (The ground state energy for the Hydrogen atom is $-13.6\,eV$).

An electron in a hydrogen atom,after absorbing energy photons,can jump between energy states $n_1$ and $n_2$ $(n_2 > n_1)$. It then returns to the ground state,emitting six different wavelengths in the emission spectrum. The energy of the emitted photons can be equal to,less than,or greater than the absorbed photon energy. Determine $n_1$ and $n_2$.
