Spectral Series of Hydrogen Atom – Rankers Physics

Atomic Structure: Practice Problem & Solution

The wavelength of Lyman series of hydrogen atom appears in
Ultraviolet region
Infrared region
Visible region
Far infrared region

Short Solution (Best for NEET):

To solve this problem, we apply the core principles of Atomic Structure. Understanding the underlying formula is key to arriving at the correct answer below:

The Lyman series transitions terminate at the ground state (\(n = 1\)). The photon energies emitted in these transitions correspond to the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
