The ionization potential of a hydrogen atom is $13.6 \ eV$. Hydrogen atoms in the ground state are excited by monochromatic radiation of photon energy $12.1 \ eV$. According to Bohr's theory,the number of spectral lines emitted by the hydrogen atoms will be:

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
    $4$
