Question

Balmer series of hydrogen arises from transitions ending at:

RankGuru · Accepted Answer

The Balmer series consists of spectral lines that occur when an electron transitions from higher energy levels ($n > 2$) to the second energy level ($n = 2$). Other series include:
- Lyman series: Transitions to $n=1$ (Ultraviolet)
- Balmer series: Transitions to $n=2$ (Visible)
- Paschen series: Transitions to $n=3$ (Infrared)
- Brackett series: Transitions to $n=4$ (Infrared)
- Pfund series: Transitions to $n=5$ (Infrared)
