Q19 / 104 · NTA Abhyas (JEE Main) 2020 · Physics · Atomic Physics

Total number of elements which are present in a row on the periodic table between those elements, whose wavelength of Kα lines are equal to 250 and 179 pm are (Rydberg constant = 1.097 × 107 m-1)

Correct answer: 3

Solution

Wavelength of Kα line is given by

λ=43RZ-12

For λ, between 250 and 179 pm three elements are possible
( Z = 24, 25 and 26 ).

Hence, the correct answer is 3.
