Which of the following series of transitions in the spectrum of hydrogen atom falls in the visible region?
Lyman series
Balmer series
Paschen series
Brackett series
To determine which series of transitions in the hydrogen atom spectrum falls in the visible region,we need to understand the different series and their corresponding spectral regions.The hydrogen atom spectrum consists of several series, each corresponding to transitions betweendifferent energy levels. The main series are:• Lyman series: Transitions from higher energy levels to This series falls in the ultraviolet region.• Balmer series: Transitions from higher energy levels to This series falls in the visible region.• Paschen series: Transitions from higher energy levels to This series falls in the infrared region.• Brackett series: Transitions from higher energy levels to This series also falls in the infrared region.The Balmer series is the only series that falls in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.Therefore, the correct option is Option 2: Balmer series.
