o i got it !
so all I got to do is just to find the difference in energy between n= 7 and n = 2 and figure out the frequency of the wave out by E=hv. Then compare our frequency with the frequecy of visible light region ?? :)
I am not sure if i am getting it right ..
since n must be an integer ... n=2 should be the only state between 1 and 3 ??
I understand in theory .. there is only balmer between lyman n'=1 and Paschen n'=3 ..
but I have no idea how to proved by calculations ...
Hello,
I don't know if this is the right place to post..
this is a self study question from Levine, it is told that is important but i have no clue in solving it ..
The Balmer series corresponds to a set of emissions involving the electron in a hydrogen atom relaxing from a high energy...
