The element Iodine is purple in its solid state. Its chemical symbol is I and atomic number is 53. Its name comes form the Greek word "ioeides," which means "purple."

Is it true that each element has a unique set of lines on a spectrum?
Yes , every element has different line in the spectrum.
What element derived it name from the color of a spectrum line?
I suppose that you think to caesium (Cs).
What is a line spectrum used for?
The line spectrum is usually used to sort out the atomic fingerprint as the gas emit light at very specific frequencies when exposed to the electromagnetic waves. The electromagnetic waves are usually displayed in form of the spectral lines.
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 spectum is obtained When any element in the gas phase is excited to the point where it emits visible light?
When any element is excited to the point where it emits visible light, it emits a unique spectrum. The mercury in a florescent lamp emits a spectrum in the ultraviolet spectrum. It excites phosphorus powder on the inside of the bulb. The ultraviolet rays strike the phosphorus and it emits white light. Sodium emits yellow light. Potassium emits purple light. Sodium actually emits two different yellows. Each element emits several different colors.The above is not wrong, but it doesn't really answer the question. I believe the answer the poster was looking for is emission spectrum.You may be correct. I have no intention of giving the emission spectrum of every element. I only wished to help the questioner understand what happens when an emission spectrum is produced. I had the idea that the questioner had the idea that every element produced the same emission spectrum. We interpreted the question differently.
Why can the bright-line spectrum of an element be used to identify an element?
The wave lengths of lines of the spectrum are different for each chemical element.
Is it true that each element has a unique set of lines on a spectrum?
Yes , every element has different line in the spectrum.
Element named after brilliant indigo line in its spectrum?
Indium
A line spectrum is to an element as a person is to a?
to a eye to a eye
What element derived it name from the color of a spectrum line?
I suppose that you think to caesium (Cs).
The bright-line spectrum produced by the excited atoms of an element contains wavelengths that are?
in the visible light range
Which element did Bohr study the line emission spectrum of?
Niels Bohr studied the emission lines of Hydrogen.
What are line spectra and why do they exist?
A spectrum that contains only certain colors, or wavelengths, is called a line spectrum. For every element, the emitted light contains only certain wavelentghs, giving each element a unique line spectrum. They exist for atomic fingerprinting, which is useful in identifying elements. They are also used in sodium-vapor lmaps, which are widely used for street lighting. They are also used in "neon" lights.
What is a line spectrum used for?
The line spectrum is usually used to sort out the atomic fingerprint as the gas emit light at very specific frequencies when exposed to the electromagnetic waves. The electromagnetic waves are usually displayed in form of the spectral lines.
Why is there a line spectrum over a continuous spectrum in a spectroscope?
The lines in a spectroscope tell what element(s) are being observed. The continuous color are background noise or put there for a reference.
What is the atomic emission spectra?
The colors of light given off when an element loses energy
Can an element can be identified by its spectrum.?
The wave lengths of the lines in the spectrum are different for each chemical element.
