In transition from the state n = 4 to n = 3 in a hydrogen like atom results in ultraviolet region, then what should be the transition for the infrared region ?

Answer»

`2to1`
`3to2`
`4to2`
`5to4`

Solution :The frequency of ultraviolet rays is high and the frequency of infrared is low. Hence the transition of electron should TAKE place in an orbit such that the order of the orbit is the HIGHEST in the given order. Such order is in option (D) `5TO 4`. This EMIT radiation in Brackett series and it is in the infrared REGION.
