- A Paschen
- B Balmer
- C Lyman
- D Brackett
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Balmer
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\begin{array}{l|l}
Ultraviolet region & Lyman series \\
Visible region & Balmer series \\
Infrared region & Paschen series, Brackett sereis, Pfund series
\end{array}
From the above chart it is clear that Balmer series lies in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
