How do you think the lines you observed in the hydrogen emission spectrum relate to the energy of the electrons in a hudrogen atom?
For a detailed explanation on the relation between spectrum lines electron energy check out avogadro.co.uk/light/bohr/spectra.htm
Working principle of atomic emission spectroscopy?
An emission spectrum is the spectrum of frequencies of the electromagnetic radiation emitted (by an atom or molecule) during a transition from a high energy to a low energy level.
What does the absorption spectrum of an atom show?
The absorption spectrum of an atom shows that the atom emits that spectrum which it absorbs.
Why line spectrum is called finger print spectrum?
It is unique to a specific atom. The emission spectrum of sodium, for example, has two characteristic lines close together in the yellow part of the spectrum, which cannot be found in any other atom. Each line in a spectrum relates to a change in electron state or level.
What model did Rutherford and Bohr create?
The atom model where electrons are fixed in orbits around a core of protons and neutrons. Electrons could only change orbit under emission of radiation.
How does the number of lines in the emission spectrum for an element compare with the number of lines in the absorption spectrum?
An emission spectrum depend on electrons transition in the atom of a chemical element; and elements are different.Absorption spectrum is based on the different absorption pics of different molecules, depending on the frequency of radiation.Spectral methods are largely used in analytical chemistry.
According to Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom how is hydrogen's emission spectrum produced?
it is produced when an electron from a higher energy orbit drops down to a lower level of energy orbit.

It's produced when an electron from a higher energy orbit drops down to a lower level energy orbit

What is a star's emission spectrum?
The emission spectrum of a star is the spectrum of frequencies for emitted electromagnetic radiation during the transition of an atom's electrons from a high-energy state to a low-energy state. The emission spectrum can differ depending on the temperature and composition of the star.
Working principle of atomic emission spectroscopy?
An emission spectrum is the spectrum of frequencies of the electromagnetic radiation emitted (by an atom or molecule) during a transition from a high energy to a low energy level.
The lines in the bright line spectrum of an atom are due to what?
The atomic line spectrum comes from the emission of atoms of different elements that are in an excited state. Each element has its own unique atomic emission spectrum.
The lines at the ultraviolet end of the hydrogen spectrum are known as the lyman series wich electron transitions within an atom are responsible for these lines?
The series of lines in an emission spectrum caused by electrons falling from energy level 2 or higher (n=2 or more) back down to energy level 1 (n=1) is called the Lyman series. These emission lines are in the ultra-violet region of the spectrum.
What is the atomic emission spectra?
The colors of light given off when an element loses energy
What ejects electrons?
Electrons may be ejected as Beta particles from an atom undergoing radioactive decay. Electrons may also be ejected in high-energy particle collisions such as those produced in a cyclotron. Electrons may also be displaced from an atom by extremes of high temperature when a plasma is formed, by thermionic emission; or by light, during the interaction with a photon of sufficient energy.
What kind of spectrum do dark lines appear against a bright a bright background of colors ranging from red to blue?
Dark-line spectrum is a "photo-negative" of emission spectrum. It is the gaps that appear in precisely the same location as corresponding bright lines. produced by a cool gas with a hot solid and you
How is the bright light spectra of elements produced?
An emission or absorption line in a spectrum that arises when an electron moves between two energy levels in an atom. A jump to a higher level requires an input of energy, and produces a dark absorption line. A drop to a lower level releases energy, producing a bright emission line.
