Which of the following series of transitions in the spectrum of hydrogen atom falls in visible region?
Which of the following series of transitions in the spectrum of hydrogen atom falls in visible region?
Lyman series
Balmer series
Paschen series
Brackett series
Solution
Among the given series, lines of Balmar series are the only lines in the hydrogen spectrum which appear in the visible spectrum, lyman lies in the ultraviolet region while Paschen and Brackett series lie in the infrared region.
