The Lyman series in the line spectra of atomic hydrogen is the name for the light emitted from transitions from excited states to the n = 1 hydrogen ground state. The Balmer series refers to the light emitted from transitions from excited states with n ≥ 3 to the n = 2 energy state.
a. Find the wavelengths of the three shortest-wavelength photons in the Lyman series. In what range of the electromagnetic spectrum are the spectral lines of the Lyman series?
b. Find the wavelengths of the three shortest-wavelength photons in the Balmer series. In what range of the electromagnetic spectrum are the spectral lines of the Balmer series?
