Spectral region of Lyman series

For H-atom, Lyman spectral lines must lie in:
Ultraviolet region
Visible region
Infrared region
All of these

Solution:

The Lyman series corresponds to transitions from outer orbits to the first orbit (\(n=1\)) of hydrogen. These emissions are of high energy and fall in the ultraviolet region.
