Electrons move between different energy levels in an atom. When electrons are in the lowest orbital, otherwise known as the ground state, they eventually progress into the highest orbital, also known as the excited state. When electrons move from the excited state back to the lowest orbital, they emit energy in the form of light that varies in colors, depending on the element. Some of these forms of light may not always be visible to the naked eye.

What is the name of the spectrum when elements produce different colors when heated?
Atomic spectra
What is the atomic spectra of iron?
you can find the answer at www.wedmineral.com/help/FlameTest.shtmlhave find and i hope you find it :)
Does helium absorb uv?
Yes, it does. It re-emits infrared radiations. This is related to atomic spectra.
Can atomic spectra be explained on the basis of quantum mechanics?
Atomic spectrum is a spectrum of radiation caused by electron transitions of energy levels within an atom. This is determined by E=h*f
Elements that have been produced artificially through nuclear reactions have what atomic numbers?
All the elements after Uranium(atomic no. 92) have been artificially produced.
How Many types of Infrared Spectra?
There are three main types of infrared spectra: absorption spectra, emission spectra, and reflection spectra. Absorption spectra are produced when a material absorbs infrared energy, emission spectra are produced when a material emits infrared radiation, and reflection spectra result from the reflection of infrared radiation off a material.
Who discovered the atomic emission spectra?
thomas Jefferson
What has the author G Herzberg written?
G. Herzberg has written: 'Atomic spectra and atomic structure'
What are the limitations of Thomson?
His model cannot explain atomic spectra or radioactivity.
What scientists used atomic spectra to develop a model of the atom?
Niels Bohr.
What is the name of the spectrum when elements produce different colors when heated?
Atomic spectra
What effect does the nucleus have on atomic spectra of different elements?
Aside from determining how many electrons the atom has, the nucleus does not affect the spectra of that atom in any way.
How did Moseley discover the atomic theory?
Moseley was the first to clear and scientifically justify in 1913 the atomic number studying X-ray spectra of chemical elements. But Moseley hadn't a personal atomic theory, he was not the discoverer of the atomic theory.
