STANDARD Physics Bohr's Model MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11

According to Bohr's theory, the wave number of last line of Balmer series is (R = 1.1 × 10⁷ m⁻¹)

A

5.5 × 10⁵ m⁻¹

B

4.4 × 10⁷ m⁻¹

C

2.75 × 10⁶ m⁻¹

D

2.75 × 10⁸ m⁻¹

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

For last line of Balmer series, n₁ = 2 and n₂ = ∞. Using the formula for wave number, we get 1/λ = R(1/n₁² - 1/n₂²) = 1.1 × 10⁷/4 = 2.75 × 10⁶ m⁻¹.
