| Explain the origin of the spectral series in the line spectrum of hydrogen based on the concepts of electron transitions from one orbit to another and using the energy diagram.
The Lyman series occurs during transitions of atoms from excited states to the ground state, the Balmer series – during transitions of atoms from the second, third, and higher levels to the first excited state, i.e. to the second energy level.
