When electrons of a hydrogen atom return to the L shell (n=2) from higher energy shells, the series of lines formed is called

0.Balmer series
1.Lyman series
2.Brackett series
3.Paschen series
Explanation

L shell = n=2. When electrons fall to n=2 from n=3,4,5… they produce the Balmer series (visible light).
