                    When electron jumps from n = 4 to n = 2 orbit, we get:                                                                 

    A)                 second line of Lyman series                                       

    B)                 second line of Balmer series

    C)                 second line of Paschen series                                    

    D)                 an absorption line of Balmer series

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    Second line of Lyman series corresponds to the transition  \[n=3\to n=1\]                 Second line of Balmer series corresponds to the transition           \[n=4\to n=2\]                 Second line of Paschen series corresponds to the transition n = 5 to n = 3                 An absorption line of Balmer series arises when electron jumps from n - 2 to any other higher state.                 Thus, choice (b) is correct.
