To solve the problem of arranging the wavelengths of the first lines of the Lyman, Balmer, and Paschen series in increasing order, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Series**: - The Lyman series corresponds to transitions from higher energy levels to the ground state (n=1). - The Balmer series corresponds to transitions from higher energy levels to the first excited state (n=2). - The Paschen series corresponds to transitions from higher energy levels to the second excited state (n=3). ...
