The correct Answer is:
To determine which series of the hydrogen spectrum is in the visible region, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Spectral Series of Hydrogen The hydrogen spectrum consists of several series, each corresponding to electronic transitions between energy levels. The main series are: - Lyman series - Balmer series - Paschen series - Brackett series - Pfund series ### Step 2: Identify the Regions of the Electromagnetic Spectrum Each series corresponds to a specific region of the electromagnetic spectrum: - **Lyman series**: Ultraviolet (UV) region - **Balmer series**: Visible region - **Paschen series**: Infrared region - **Brackett series**: Infrared region - **Pfund series**: Infrared region ### Step 3: Focus on the Visible Region Since the question specifically asks for the series in the visible region, we need to identify which of the series listed falls within this range. ### Step 4: Conclusion From our understanding, the **Balmer series** is the only series that falls within the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum. ### Final Answer The series of the hydrogen spectrum that is in the visible region is the **Balmer series**. ---
