  1. Question 1

    Q1. The wavelength of a spectral line in the hydrogen spectrum can be calculated using which equation?

    • A) de Broglie
    • B) Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle
    • C) Rydberg
    • D) Schrödinger

    Answer: Rydberg

    Explanation: Rydberg equation predicts spectral lines in hydrogen; de Broglie relates to particle wavelength, not spectral lines.
