A photons was absorbed by a hydrogen atom in its ground state, and the elctron was prompted to the fifth orbit. When the excited atom returuned to its ground state, visible and other quanta were emitted. In this process, how many maximum spectral lined could be obtained-

A

`2rarr1`

B

`5rarr2`

C

`3rarr1`

D

`4rarr1`

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

A

Since one visible quanta is there, hence the transition must be to the second quantum number. Hence the final transition is `2rarr1`
