What determines the range of spectral lines produced during electron transition? the higher energy level to which the electron jumps the lower energy level to which the electron returns the total number of energy levels the electron can jump to the number of electrons under electronic transition at the same time

Answer: the total number of energy levels the electron can jump to.


Step-by-step explanation:

The spectral lines (which may be emission or absorption lines) correspond to to the loss (release) or gain (absortion) of energy of the electrons when they jump between energy levels.

So, the greater the number of energy levels the greater the number of spectral lines.
