Which describes electron probe microanalysis to determine the elemental composition of glass?
Electrons excite atoms in a sample, which emit X rays characteristic of the elements within the sample.
What does the electron arrangement of any particular atom show?
The emission spectrum is your visible light spectrum, so it tells you your wavelength and frequency. Knowing this information allows you to calculate your photon energy (Eph = hv, where v = frequency and h = plank's constant). Hence, you know how much energy the electrons have and how much energy it takes to excite them from one energy level to the next (Eph).
Can atoms be ionized by being excited?
No. When you excite an atom, you just do something with the electrons within the atom. (You take them into higher energy levels.) An atom can be ionized only when it is charged, you would have to remove or add an electron. But you are only placing the electron on higher energy level, so it stays within the atom, therefore atom is not ionized.
What is another name for outermost electrons?
Electrons in the outermost shell are valence electrons!
What part of an atom forms a chemical bond?
The electrons (especially the valence electrons)
What is required to excite the electrons of the chlorophyll and start the cyclic and non-cyclic phosphorylation?
required to excite the electrons of the chlorophyll and start the cyclic and non-cyclic phosphorylation?
What is the energy supply for photosynthesis?
sunlight to excite the electrons
What is needed to excite electrons?
For example when the electron absorb energy.
What organism relies on photons to excite electrons within its membranes?
Photroph
During photosynthesis visible light has enough energy to?
Excite electrons
What does light do to Chlorophyll?
The light is absorbed by the chlorophyll. The light is then used to excite electrons.
What makes x rays?
X rays are generated by devices that excite electrons
How does the light dependent process begin?
Photons of light strike chlorophyll molecules and excite electrons.
What happens when pigments absorb light?
the electrons of the pigment molecules excite, then the energy dissipates as heat.
How is light a part of photosynthesis?
Light is needed to excite electrons in the electron transport chain to commence photosynthesis.
Why are the hydrogen Balmer lines strong in the spectra of medium temperature stars and weak in the spectra of hot and cool stars?
Balmer lines are produced by colliding hydrogen atoms with electrons excited to 2nd energy level. Cool stars don't have enough collision to excite the electrons, hot stars have too much collision and excite the electrons beyond 2nd energy level.
What changes electrical energy into heat?
when electrons flow through a conductor then the material of the conductor offers resistance to excite the electrons in the conductor to release heat energy.
