Question

Two energy levels of an electron in hydrogen atom are separated by 2.55 eV. Find the wavelength of radiation emitted when the electron makes transition from the higher energy level to the lower energy level.

Hydrogen atom initially in the ground state, absorbs a photon which excites it to n = 5 level. The wavelength of the photon is :

Draw the energy level diagram for hydrogen atom. Mark the transitions corresponding to the series lying in the ultraviolet region, visible region and infrared region.

A hydrogen atom makes a transition from n = 5 to n = 1 orbit. The wavelength of photon emitted is λ. The wavelength of photon emitted when it makes a transition from n = 5 to n = 2 orbit is
