Q.

A monochromatic light is incident on a hydrogen sample in ground state. Hydrogen atoms absorb a fraction of light and subsequently emit radiation of six different wavelengths. The frequency of incident light is x×1015 Hz. The value of x is _______. (Given h=4.25×10-15 eV s)                   [2023]

6=C24 ⇒ n2=4

hν=E4-E1

∴ ν=13.6(112-142)×14.25×10-15=3×1015 Hz
