What colors of visible light are found in the emission spectrum of hydrogen?
Red, blue, green, and violet are found in the emission spectrum of hydrogen.
What is the difference between absorption and emission spectrum?
Emission spectrum: lines emitted from an atom.Absorption spectrum: absorbed wavelengths of a molecule.
How does an emission spectrum of a gas in a discharge tube differ from a white light spectrum?
It differs by that white light spectrum is continuous and consists of light of all wavelengths. Emission spectrum is not continuous. It consists of bright lines at specific wavelengths, with complete darkness between them.
Could you use an emission spectrum of an element to identify it?
No.
What is a band spectrum?
A band spectrum is an absorption or emission spectrum consisting of bands of closely-spaced lines, characteristic of polyatomic molecules.
Is an atomic emission spectrum a continuous range of colors?
No. Atomic emission spectrum is non-contiuous and it is named as line spectrum.
What is a flame tested used for?
To identify an unknown sample by its emission spectrum
Which type of spectrum is associated with the radiation of most stars?
absorption spectrum
Is it possible for two metals to have the same emission spectrum?
No. It is not possible for two metals to have the same emission spectrum. For metals to have the same emission spectrum, they would need for their electrons to have duplicate orbitals. That would be impossible due to the exclusion principle.
Explain the difference between the continuous spectrum of white light and the atomic emission spectrum of an element?
The difference between continuous spectrum and the atomic emission espectrum of an element is that in emission spectrum, only certain specific frequencies of light are emitted while in a continuous spectrum, a continuous range of colors are seen in the visible light.
An emission spectrum can be used to?
Identify elements
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.
What colors of visible light are found in the emission spectrum of hydrogen?
Red, blue, green, and violet are found in the emission spectrum of hydrogen.
What are Frequencies of light emitted by an element called?
"Spectrogram" is a word used to describe the set of specific characteristic frequencies of light which are emitted by a given chemical element when it is sufficiently excited by heat or by some other means.Alternatively, a scientific technique known as "spectroscopy" can be used to identify the elements in some matter of unknown composition and also the emission spectra of molecules can be used in chemical analysis of substances.Because each element's emission spectrum is unique, the "emission spectrum" of a chemical element or chemical compound can be used to help identify what it is. The "emission spectrum" is the name given to the relative intensity of each frequency of electromagnetic radiation http://www.answers.com/topic/emission-spectrum by the element's atoms or a compound's molecules when they are returned to a ground state.
What is the emission spectrum of mercury?
because the emission wavelengths of mercury are very precisely known.
What element can produce an atomic emission spectrum in its natural state neon chlorine silicon or Krypton?
Every element can produce an emission spectrum, if it is sufficiently heated. Of the 4 elements that you mention, neon is the most useful, in terms of its emission spectrum, and it is used in a certain type of lighting.
What is the difference between absorption and emission spectrum?
Emission spectrum: lines emitted from an atom.Absorption spectrum: absorbed wavelengths of a molecule.
