Overview

Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only!
Explore the fascinating world of atomic transitions and spectral series in this 22-minute video lecture. Delve into the quantized energy levels of atoms and understand how electron transitions between these states result in discrete emission or absorption lines in spectra. Learn about the Hydrogen Atom's spectral series, including Lyman, Balmer, Paschen, Brackett, and Pfund Series, and their origins in discrete atomic transitions. Gain insights into the Bohr Model of the atom and its success in explaining these phenomena. Discover how atomic transitions provide a unique spectral fingerprint for each element, connecting quantized energy levels to specific wavelengths of emitted light.
