What you observe if light from argon gas were passed through a prism?
a continuous spectrum
Is argon in light bulbs?
No, Argon is the gas which protects us from direct sun-rays.
Why is argon use in a light bulb?
Because argon is an inert gas; the oxidation of the wolfram filament is not possible in pure argon.
Why was argon gas chosen for a light bulb?
Argon is often used when an inert atmosphere is needed. It is used in this way in incandescent light bulbs to stop oxygen from corroding the filament. Argon is used in fluorescent tubes and low-energy light bulbs. A low-energy light bulb often contains argon gas and mercury. When it is switched on an electric discharge passes through the gas, generating UV light. The coating on the inside surface of the bulb is activated by the UV light and it glows brightly.
In a bulb noble gas argon is used . why is argon is used instead of air in the light bulb?
It won't burn the filament.
What you observe if light from argon gas were passed through a prism?
a continuous spectrum
What element that is a gas is used in house light bulbs?
argon
Which gas used in light bulb?
The gas in a light bulb is Argon
Why argon gas is used in light bulbs but not air?
Argon does not react. :)
Which gas in tube light?
Mixture of argon gas and Mercury gas.
What gas is usually filled with light bulbs?
Argon gas .
What the name of the gas is in a light bulb?
argon - inert gas
What is the gas Argon used for?
Incandescent light ,
What gas is inside a light bulb?
The kind of gas that is in a light bulb is called Argon.
What gas is in light bulbs?
An energy saving light bulb is simply a fluorescent light-bulb in a small housing with a built in starter . The gas used for it will be the same as a standard strip-light which is a tube filled with low pressure mercuric oxide and an inert gas like Argon Neon or krypton.
Is argon in light bulbs?
No, Argon is the gas which protects us from direct sun-rays.
Why has Argon replaced Nitrogen as the gas in light bulbs?
Apart from being an noble or inert gas it is one of the cheaper gases so therefore reduces the cost that is passed onto the customer.
