The Balmer series in the hydrogen spectrum corresponds to the transition from n₁ = 2 to n₂ = 3,4,.......... This series lies in the visible region. Calculate the wavenumber of the line associated with the transition in Balmer series when the electron moves to n = 4 orbit. (R_H= 109677 cm^-1)
o According to Bohr’s model for the hydrogen atom

_H cm^-1

here, n₁ = 2 and n₂ = 4 and _H = Rydberg’s constant = 109677

Hence, wave number ^-v= 109677 ( )
