A star with a continuous spectrum shines through a cool gas cloud in space made mostly of hydrogen. This cloud is moving toward the star and away from the Earth. Which of the following describes the type of spectrum we would see here on Earth? A. blue-shifted absorption spectrum B. a continuous spectrum without absorption lines C. a series of hydrogen emission lines at their rest wavelengths D. red-shifted absorption spectrum

The emission spectrum below for a one-electron (hydrogen-like) species in the gas phase shows all the lines, before they merge together, resulting from transitions to the first excited state from higher energy states. Line A has a wavelength of $434 \mathrm{nm}$. (a) What are the upper and lower principal quantum numbers corresponding to the lines labeled A and B? (b) Identify the one-electron species that exhibits the spectrum.
