Explanation / Answer

For barmer series , n1=2 , n2 = 3,4,5,..... we know ( 1/ ) = R [ ( 1/ n1^2 ) -( 1/ n2^2 )] Take n1=1 and n2 = 3 where R = rydberg's constant = 10.96 * 10 ^ 6 m^-1 plug th evalues weget ( 1/ ) = ( 10.96 * 10 ^ 6 m ^-1 )[ ( 1/ 2 ^ 2 ) - ( 1/ 3^ 2) ]                                             = 10.96 * 10 ^ 6 * [ ( 1/ 4 ) - ( 1/ 9 ) ]                                             = 10.96 * 10 ^ 6 * [ 0.25 - 0.11)                                            = 1.5222* 10 ^ 6 m ^-1                                       = 0.6569 * 10 ^ -6 m                                          = 656.9 * 10 ^ -9 m                                          = 656.9 nm For wavelength limit n1 = 2 , n2 = plug these values we get ( 1/ ) = ( 10.96 * 10 ^6m ^-1 ) [ ( 1/ 2^ 2 ) - ( 1/ ^ 2 ) ]                                                 = 10.96 * 10 ^ 6 * ( 1/ 4 )                                                 = 2.74 * 10 ^ 6                                               = 0.3649 * 10 ^ -6 m                                                 = 364.9 * 10 ^ -9 m                                                 = 364.9 nm Limit of Barmer series is 364.9 nm   to656.9 nm wavelength range of visible spectrum is 380 nm to750 nm 364.9 nm is lies in the infrared spectrum . So, another region is infrared
