How do the emission spectra for hydrogen and heliumcompare?helium has more emission lines in the visible spectrumthey have the same number of emission lines in the visiblespectrumO hydrogen has more emission lines in the visible spectrum

Emission spectra is obtained when an atom is introduced to energy it gets excited to a higher energy level and when it comes back to the ground state, it emits energy or radiation which is recorded as the emission spectra.Hydrogen emission spectra differs from a helium emission spectra because : a) Hydrogen has only 1 electron while helium has 2 electrons b) The mass of helium atom is more than the mass of hydrogen atom. The hydrogen emission spectra is obtained when the atom is radiated, the electron in the atom will excite to higher energy levels, different levels corresponds to different energy. Since, helium has two electrons, it will show more spectral lines in the emission spectra as compared to hydrogen spectra and will be more complex. Hence, option 1 is correct i.e. helium has more emission lines.
