Ans: As changes in energy levels of electrons increase, the frequencies of atomic line spectra they emit will increase.

The energy (E) is related to the frequency (ν) by the following equation:

E = hν

where h = planck's constant

The change in energy i between levels is:

ΔΕ = h(Δν) -----(1)

Based on the above equation, as the changes in energy levels increase, the frequency of emitted radiation will also increase.
