Hello!!!!
Hope you are doing great!!!!
According to rydberg's equation 1/λ = RZ 2 (1/n 1 2 - 1/n 2 2 )
λ is inversly proportional to n 2
therefore ..;;
λ1/λ2=n2 2 /n1 2
As balmer series start from first line i.e, n1=2,n2=3,λ1=λ ,λ2=?
λ/λ2=3^2/2^2
λ/λ2=9/4
Therefore., wave length of second line in balmer series ,, λ2=4λ/9
Hope it helps !!!!!
