If the series limit frequency of the Lyman series is $${\nu _L}$$, then the series limit frequency of the Pfund series is:
$${\nu _L}/25$$
$$25{\nu _L}$$
$$16{\nu _L}$$
$${\nu _L}/16$$
Explanation
Note :
(1) In Lyman Series, transition happens in n = 1 state
from n = 2, 3, . . . . . $$ \propto $$
(2) In Balmer Series, transition happens in n = 2 state
from n = 3, 4, . . . . . $$ \propto $$
(3) In Paschen Series, transition happens in n = 3 state
from n = 4, 5, . . . . . $$ \propto $$
(4) In Bracktt Series, transition happens in n = 4 state
from n = 5, 6 . . . . . . $$ \propto $$
(5) In Pfund Series, transition happens in n = 5 state
from n = 6, 7, . . . . $$ \propto $$
We know,
$${1 \over \lambda }$$ = RZ2 $$\left( {{1 \over {n_1^2}} - {1 \over {n_2^2}}} \right)$$
Series limit means transition happens
from n = $$ \propto $$ to n = 1, for Lyman Series.
In series limit for Lyman series,
$${1 \over {{\lambda _L}}}$$ = RZ2 $$\left( {{1 \over {{1^2}}} - {1 \over \propto }} \right)$$
$$ \Rightarrow $$$$\,\,\,$$ $${1 \over {{\lambda _L}}}$$ = RZ2
We know,
E = $${{hc} \over \lambda }$$ = h$$\gamma $$
$$ \Rightarrow $$$$\,\,\,$$ $$\gamma $$ = $${c \over \lambda }$$
So, frequency in Lyman Series,
$$\gamma $$L = $${c \over {{\lambda _L}}}$$ = c $$ \times $$ RZ2
In Pfund series,
n2 = $$ \propto $$ and n1 = 5
$$\therefore\,\,\,$$ $${1 \over {{\lambda _P}}}$$ = RZ2$$\left( {{1 \over {{5^2}}} - {1 \over {{ \propto ^2}}}} \right)$$
$$ \Rightarrow $$$$\,\,\,$$ $${1 \over {{\lambda _P}}}$$ = $${{R{Z^2}} \over {25}}$$
$$\therefore\,\,\,$$ $${\gamma _P}$$ = $${c \over {{\lambda _P}}}$$ = c $$ \times $$ $${{R{Z^2}} \over {25}}$$
$$\therefore\,\,\,$$ $$\gamma $$P = $${{cRZ{}^2} \over {25}}$$ = $${{{\gamma _L}} \over {25}}$$ [as $$\gamma $$L = cRZ2]
