Explain the reason that the atomic emission spectrum of hydrogen contains only four lines.
A)
The hydrogen atoms form a continuous series of quantized energy levels
that transmute at a variety of frequencies.
B)
Hydrogen atoms contain a limited number of quantized energy levels that
emit radiation at a limited number of frequencies.
C)
Many hydrogen atoms accomodate an array of quantized energy levels that
can release energy at a progression of frequencies.
A hydrogen atom consists of a sequence of quantized energy levels that
incorporate radiation only from consecutive frequencies.
D)

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.

The reason that the atomic emission spectrum of hydrogen contains only four lines is the hydrogen atoms form a continuous series of quantized energy levels that transmute at a variety of frequencies.

What is atomic emission spectrum of hydrogen?

The emission spectrum of hydrogen consist of numerous spectral series, the wavelength is postulated by Rydberg formula.

The reason behind the lines of spectrum is the transition of electron between two energies.

Thus, the correct option is A.
