Step-by-Step Verified Solution

When an e transition from n th^{th} to ground state then ∑(n−1)\sum {(n - 1)} spectral lines are produced.

Given, n=4n=4

So, ∑(4−1)=∑3=3+2+1=6\sum {(4 - 1) = \sum {3 = 3 + 2 + 1 = 6} }

Hence, 6 spectral lines are emitted by atomic Hydrogen that is in the 4th4^{th} energy level
