Question

Explain the reason that the atomic emission spectrum of hydrogen contains only four lines.

Answer 1

Answer:

Though a hydrogen atom has only one electron, it contains a large number of shells, so when this single electron jumps from one shell to another, a photon is emitted, and the energy difference of the shells causes different wavelengths to be released... hence, mono-electronic hydrogen has many spectral lines.
