The spectral series to which the emission line belongs, when electron in the hydrogen atom jumps from 4th energy state to 2nd energy state, is: |
Paschen series Lyman series Balmer series Brackett series |
Balmer series |
The correct answer is Option (3) → Balmer series When the electron jumps to 2nd energy state from any higher energy state (for e.g., 4th energy state) The spectral line corresponds to Balmer series. |
