Vedclass · Answer

(C) For the Brackett series,the transition is to $n_1 = 4$.For the third line,the electron jumps from $n_2 = 4 + 3 = 7$.Using the Rydberg formula: $\frac{1}{\lambda} = R Z^2 \left[ \frac{1}{n_1^2} - \frac{1}{n_2^2} ight]$.For hydrogen,$Z = 1$,so $\frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left[ \frac{1}{4^2} - \frac{1}{7^2} ight]$.$\frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left[ \frac{1}{16} - \frac{1}{49} ight] = R \left[ \frac{49 - 16}{16 	imes 49} ight]$.$\frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left[ \frac{33}{784} ight]$.Therefore,$\lambda = \frac{784}{33R}$.
