Assume that He obeys the Bohr theory exactly. Which of the following transitions in He will not give rise to a spectral line which has the same wavelength as some spectral line in the hydrogen spectrum?

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

energies are times hydrogen's, so a transition coincides with a hydrogen line only when both quantum numbers are even (each halves). involves odd numbers, so no hydrogen line shares its wavelength.
