The absorption transitions between the first and the fourth energy states of hydrogen atom are

\mathrm{3}

. The emission transitions between these states will be

View answer and explanation

Correct option: D

\mathrm{6}

Option D (6) is correct because the number of emission transitions is calculated using the formula N = n(n-1)/2, where n is the number of energy levels.
