This document discusses the hydrogen spectral lines observed in the emission spectrum of hydrogen gas. It explains that hydrogen's emission spectrum shows distinct spectral lines rather than a continuous spectrum, as Bohr's model of the atom accounted for the energy of electronic transitions. The main spectral series observed for hydrogen are the Lyman series in ultraviolet, Balmer series in visible, and Paschen series in infrared regions. The wavelengths of these lines can be described by formulas discovered by Balmer and Rydberg, with Rydberg's formula applying to all hydrogen line series. Spectroscopy is the study of absorption and emission spectra.
