The following statements are given about hydrogen atom.
A
The wavelengths of the spectral lines of Lyman series are greater than the wavelength of the second spectral line of Balmer series.
is false, 
is true
is false, is true
B
The orbits correspond to circular standing waves in which the circumference of the orbit equals a whole number of wavelengths.
is true, 
is false
is true, is false C
is false, 
is false D
is true, 
is true
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
Statement 
is false as spectral lines of Lyman series has smaller wavelength than second spectral line of Balmer series. So, statement 
is false whereas, statement 
is true.
