Question
In a hypothetical atom, if transition from n = 4 to n = 3 produces visible light then the possible transition to obtain infrared radiation is :
Options
A.n = 5 to n = 3
B.n = 4 to n = 2
C.n = 3 to n = 1
D.none of these
Solution
All the transition energies in option(A),(B) and (C) are greater than corresponding to n = 4 to n = 3. Hence, option (D).
