According to Bohr atom model, in which of the following transitions will the frequency be maximum?

According to Bohr atom model, in which of the following transitions will the frequency be maximum?
  1. n=3 to n=2
  2. n=5 to n=4
  3. n=4 to n=3
  4. n=2 to n=1

Solution

ΔE=13.61n12-1n22=hv

It is maximum if n1=1 and n2=2

n=5..-0.544eV

n=4 .................................................... -0.850 eV

n=3..-1.511eV

n=2-3.4eV

n=1.-13.6eV
