How do I derive the Rydberg constant from the Bohr Formula from the plank-einstein relation Ephoton=hf?
I currently have the following E = Einitial - Efinal Ephoton = hc / lambda
hmm . ..nic qn w8 lemme think ovr it
seems u need to equate lambda
ther is an amguity in rydberg const...it can mean the const coming in hydrogen spectra or in the energy of orbits equation..
Hello may I help here?
@shayaan_Mustafa yes i think you may
according to bohr's formula energy released, when an eletron makes a transition from a higher energy level n2 to lower energy level n1, is given by\[E=R \left( 1/n1^{2} -1/n2^{2}\right)\] where r is rydberg constant.. At the same time the energy of photon released during the process is given by E= hf Equalise the two values of energy.. if values of n1, n2, and f is known R can be obtained easily..
