With the Rydberg constant for Hydrogen accepted value at:
[math]\displaystyle{ R = 1.0974*10^7/m\! }[/math]
and our measured values ranging from:
[math]\displaystyle{ 1.06*10^7 \lt R \lt 1.14*10^7/m\! }[/math]
We can see the results are within 1 sigma away from the accepted value.
For Deuterium, the results are even better, and our error bars are almost not visible as our data is almost directly on the best fit line found by the least squares method.
When we did our mercury calibration, we found that our measured wavelength was -9 off from the actual wavelength for 690. This was throwing our results off so we decided to check what would happen if we changed it to 2, more close to the rest of our calibration differences. This made our results a lot better. My lab partner insisted we made a mistake in our measurements, so we decided to keep it at a calibration of 2 and keep the better results and match the trend of error correction.
