The lines of the Lyman series in the hydrogen spectrum lie in the
Aultraviolet region
Bvisible region
Cinfrared region
Dmicrowave region
Answer: A
Lyman lines arise from transitions to n=1, the largest energy gaps in hydrogen (10.2 eV to 13.6 eV), so their wavelengths (about 91 nm to 122 nm) are in the ultraviolet.
