About Hydrogen Spectrum
The hydrogen emission spectrum consists of discrete wavelengths corresponding to electron transitions between energy levels.
Lyman Series: Transitions to n=1 (UV)
Balmer Series: Transitions to n=2 (Visible)
Paschen Series: Transitions to n=3 (IR)
RH ≈ 1.097×107 m-1 (Rydberg constant)
