As we learn

Bohr’s Model for Hydrogen Atom/Hydrogen like atoms -

The frequency of radiation (\nu) absorbed or emitted when the electron jumps between two stationary states that differ in energy by ?E, is given by:

\nu= \Delta E/h= \left ( E_{2} -E_{1}\right )/h

E2 is a higher energy state and E1 is the lower energy state

-

 

 The frequency of emitted radiation is given by

\nu =Rcz^{2}\frac{1}{(n-1)^{2}}-\frac{1}{n^{2}}

\nu =Rcz^{2}(\frac{n^{2}-(n-1)^{2}}{(n(n-1))^{2}})

\nu =Rcz^{2}(\frac{2n - 1}{n^{2}\left ( n-1 \right )^{2}})

for large value of n

\nu =\frac{Rcz^{2}}{n^{3}}

\nu \propto n^{-3}
