The figure indicates the energy level diagram of an atom and the origin of six spectral lines in emission (e.g. line no. 5 arises from the transition from level B to A). The following spectral lines will also occur in the absorption spectrum

  1. 1, 4, 6
  2. 4, 5, 6
  3. 1, 2, 3
  4. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Solution

We get absorption lines when the transition of the electron takes place from ground state, or energy level n=1, to higher levels. For given options only 1, 2 and 3 lines.
