Hydrogen has one atom but can give 5 different spectra why ?​

Answer» ONG>Explanation:

Each HYDROGEN atom contains one electron. The hydrogen atoms absorb DIFFERENT amounts of energy and go to different excited states. From there, they take different paths and come BACK to ground state. Since different paths are associated with different energies, different SPECTRAL lines are formed in the spectrum.
