RE-NEET 2024 Physics Energy Levels MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11
Some energy levels of a molecule are shown in the figure with their wavelengths of transitions. Then:
A
λ₃ > λ₂, λ₁ = 2λ₂
B
λ₃ > λ₂, λ₁ = 4λ₂
C
λ₁ > λ₂, λ₂ = 2λ₃
D
λ₂ > λ₁, λ₂ = 2λ₃
Correct Answer
Option D
Detailed Explanation
The energy difference between levels is inversely proportional to the wavelength of transition. Since the energy difference for λ₂ is greater than for λ₁, λ₂ must be shorter than λ₁.
