MCQ
When the excited electron of a $H$ atom from $n =5$ drops to the ground state, the maximum number of emission lines observed are$.......$
  • A
    $15$
  • B
    $16$
  • $10$
  • D
    $8$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$10$
c
Maximum number of emission lines from $\mathrm{n}^{\text {th }}$ energy state to ground state is given by:

$=\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}-1)}{2}=\frac{5(5-1)}{2}=\frac{20}{2}=10 \text { lines. }$
