Hydrogen Spectrum & Spectral Series

The atomic hydrogen emits a line spectrum consisting of various series. Which series of hydrogen atomic spectra is lying in the visible region?

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

Balmer series ( $n \to 2$ ) has wavelengths $365$ to $656$ nm, the visible region.
So the answer is (b) Balmer series.
