the line spectrum of the hydrogen spectrum indicates that only certain energies are allowed for the electron of the hydrogen atom. In other words, the energy of the electron in the hydrogen atom is quantized.

How did indium get its name?
its named after the bright indigo line in its spectrum
According to Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom how is hydrogen's emission spectrum produced?
it is produced when an electron from a higher energy orbit drops down to a lower level of energy orbit.

What are line spectra and why do they exist?
A spectrum that contains only certain colors, or wavelengths, is called a line spectrum. For every element, the emitted light contains only certain wavelentghs, giving each element a unique line spectrum. They exist for atomic fingerprinting, which is useful in identifying elements. They are also used in sodium-vapor lmaps, which are widely used for street lighting. They are also used in "neon" lights.
What do Each of the colored lines in hydrogen's emission spectrum corresponds with?
transition of an electron from a higher energy level to a lower energy level.
What is the difference between sunlight produced spectrum and hydrogen gas produced spectrum?
The spectrum of sunlight is continuous while for hydrogen is line spectrum (discontinuous)
Who created the hydrogen line emission spectrum?
Niels Bohr in 1913.
Why the distances between the lines for the hydrogen spectrum decreases with the decrease in wavelength?
Just one line for hydrogen.
Does the line spectrum of water vapor bear any resemblance to the line spectra of hydrogen and oxygen?
Yes there will be. This is because when you take line spectrum of water vapor, then hydrogen and oxygen atoms will form their own line spectra and the final spectrum will be a combination of the two.
Who used planck's idea of quantization to explain the line spectrum of hydrogen?
Bohr
What are some disadvantages of the bohr model?
he failed to explain line spectrum of elements except hydrogen.
Which element did Bohr study the line emission spectrum of?
Niels Bohr studied the emission lines of Hydrogen.
Why is the emission spectrum of hydrogen a line spectrum and not a continuous spectrum?
It's a line spectrum because of the quantization of energy- meaning you only see energy with levels n=1,2,3.... One would never see the energy level n=2.8 for instance- that would be the case if it were continuous rather than a line spectrum.
Which spectrum of hydrogen consists of the Lyman Balmer and Paschen series?
LBP Spectrum?
Is hydrogen red in the electromagnetic spectrum?
There are two very narrowly separated lines in the excitation spectrum of hydrogen at about 656 nm, which is in the red region of the spectrum. The energy corresponds to a transition from n=3 to n=2 (Balmer series). These are far and away the most intense lines in the visible region of the spectrum, but there is also a line in the blue-green region, and several in the violet part. The overall color of a hydrogen lamp (analogous to a neon lamp, but with hydrogen instead) is a sort of fuchsia or magenta color. See the link in the "related links" section for a picture.
