The spectral series observed for hydrogen atom found in visible region is (a) Lyman (b) Balmer (c) Paschen (d) Brackett

Answer: (b). Balmer series ends on n = 2; wavelengths 365 to 656 nm, which is the visible region. Lyman is ultraviolet; Paschen and Brackett are infrared. So the answer is (b) Balmer.

The spectral series observed for hydrogen atom found in visible region is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

Balmer series ends on $n = 2$ ; wavelengths $365$ to $656$ nm, which is the visible region.
Lyman is ultraviolet; Paschen and Brackett are infrared.
So the answer is (b) Balmer.
