STANDARD Physics Bohr's Model MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11
The transition from the state n = 3 to n = 1 in a hydrogen like atom results in ultraviolet radiation. Infrared radiation will be obtained in the transition from
A
2 → 1
B
3 → 2
C
4 → 2
D
4 → 3
Correct Answer
Option D
Detailed Explanation
Infrared radiation corresponds to lower energy transitions. The transition from n = 4 to n = 3 involves a smaller energy change compared to transitions involving n = 1, thus resulting in infrared radiation.
