Re: Spectral Lines
From my understanding (based on the homework) the number of spectral lines can be determined from the number of transitions between energy levels. So for example, if a question asked how many spectral lines would be produced if an excited electron in the n=6 energy level transitioned to energy level n=2, there would be four spectral lines produced. This is because the jump from 6 to 5, 5 to 4, 4 to 3, 3 to 2 all produce a line, thus four lines would be produced for this example.
