Question

For a certain atom,there are energy levels A,B,C
corresponds to energy values EA<EB<EC If λ1,
λ2, λ3 are the wavelengths of radiations
corresponding to transisition from C to B,B to A, and C to A
respectively Then find a relation between λ1,
λ2, λ3

Anuradha Puri · Accepted Answer

The sum of the energies
for transitions C to B and B to A is equal to the energy for
transition C to A In other words, the energies and
frequencies are additive whereas wavelength is inversely
proportional to the frequency, so the reciprocals of the
wavelengths are additive

Thus,

For a certain atom,there are energy levels A,B,C corresponds to energy values EA<EB<EC.If λ1, λ2, λ3 are the wavelengths of radiations corresponding to transisition from C to B,B to A, and C to A respectively.Then find a relation between λ1, λ2, λ3.
