Transitions between three energy levels in a particular atom give rise to three spectral lines of wavelengths, in increasing magnitude, and . Which one of the following equations correctly relates and ?

Answer: (C)

Solution

The shortest wavelength corresponds to the largest energy gap, which equals the sum of the other two gaps, so
