when you add energy, electrons move to a higher energy level (orbit). WHen they come back down, they release energy. If that energy (wave length) is in the visible light range, we see color.

What causes the lines in an atomice spectrum?
wavelengths of absorbed or emitted photons
Identify the type of energy transition occurring in a molecule that causes a band to appear in an infrared spectrum?
Infrared Spectroscopy
What causes the different colors in the spectrum?
Visible light contains all of the colors with in the spectrum. The only way we see color is the bending and refraction of the visible light sending certain wave lengths back, which our brain interprets as different colors.
What is main difference between prism spectrum and grating spectrum?
Prism spectrum is formed due to DISPERSION but grating spectrum is formed due to DIFFRACTION. In prism spectrum we have only one order but in grating spectrum we can have second order too IN prism spectrum we have continuous spectrum but in gratings we have only line spectrum In prism spectrum red end will be closer to the direct ray but in grating spectrum violet end will be closer to the direct ray
Which type of spectrum is associated with the radiation of most stars?
absorption spectrum

What is the most visible color in the color spectrum that causes plant growth?
blue
Which color in the visible spectrum causes the least amount of plant growth?
Green
What causes the color when you burn an element?
A spectrum is what it is called when an element burns and produce light. The spectrum of an element is based on what orbit the electrons are in and what energy level the electrons are at.
What is an auxochrome?
An auxochrome is any atom or group which, when added to a chromophore, causes a bathochromic shift in its spectrum.
What causes dark bonds observed in a dolor spectrum?
Elliptical galaxies are divied into subclasses base on
What causes spectra lines?
Absorption of energy at atom energy levels cause the line spectrum.
Are specific spectrum of electromagnetic radiation the cause for color if true which causes which?
Not exactly. Different colors are different frequencies of light. "Spectrum", on the other hand, refers to an analysis of a mix of wavelengths.
What causes a green line in the spectrum of selenium?
Probable an impurity; the color of selenium in flame test is blue.
What Causes a line in a line spectrum?
Wavelengths of absorbed or emitted photons Every line in a line spectrum is caused by a transition, from one quantum state to another quantum state, involving electrons.
What causes lines in a line spectrum?
Wavelengths of absorbed or emitted photons Every line in a line spectrum is caused by a transition, from one quantum state to another quantum state, involving electrons.
