Question

The wavelength of the radiation emitted, when an electron falls from infinity to stationary state 1, would be (Rydberg constant = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹)

• A. 406 nm
• B. 192 nm
• C. 91 nm
• D. 9.1 × 10⁻⁸ nm

Hint:

Key Exam Tip:
The Rydberg formula directly calculates the inverse of wavelength. Remember to convert your answer to the requested units (e.g., nm) and use the correct initial and final quantum numbers ($n_i, n_f$).
