MCQ

Whenever a hydrogen atom emits a photon in the Balmer series

A
It need not emit any more photon
B
It may emit another photon in the Paschen series
✓
It must emit another photon in the Lyman series
D
It may emit another photon in the Balmer series

✓

Answer

Correct option: C.

It must emit another photon in the Lyman series

Since in spectral series of hydrogen atom, Lymen series lies lower Balmer series.
