The lines indicate which atoms are in the outer layers of stars. The location of the lines is always the same when they form.

What are the Dark lines that appear in a spectrum of light from a star called?
absorption lines! :)
How are absorption and emission lines produced in a stellar spectrum What information might absorption lines in the spectrum of a star reveal about a cloud of cool gas lying between us and the star?

Fraunhofer lines in the solar spectrum are actually?
absorption lines due to the thin outer layer above the photosphere
Are there as many absorption lines in the solar spectrum as there are elements present in the Sun?
There are a lot more. Each element has several possible absorption lines. In fact the element iron has several hundred lines.
What can be said about the star composition if the spectrum of a star shows the same absorption lines as the sun?
If the spectrum of a star shows the same absorption lines as the sun than you know that the star has the same composition as the sun. This means that the star is made of the same elements as the sun.
What are the Dark lines that appear in a spectrum of light from a star called?

Dark lines in an absorption spectrum are called?
Absorption lines
How can you predicted the absorption spectrum of a solution by looking at it's color?
By looking at its emission spectrum and seing where the black lines are
In what ways is the pattern of lines in a stars absorption spectrum unique?
because all of the different lines of a star's elements appear together i its spectrum, making the pattern different everytime
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 were dark lines in the spectrum named for?
Dark lines especially in solar spectrum have been named as Fraunhofer lines. These line are good examples for line absorption spectrum

What are examples of atomic absorption spectroscopy?
When white light from mercury vapour lamp is passed through sodium vapour then we have as outcome a continuous spectrum of colours with two black lines in the yellow-orange region. These two lines stand for the absorption of 5890 A and 5896 A lines of sodium atom Another example is Fraunhofer lines seen in the continuous spectrum got from sun. These lines are due to absorption of characteristic frequencies of metals present in the chromosphere of the sun
What are dark lines in a stellar spectrum called?
The dark lines are absorption spectrum, the energy absorbed by Atoms in the atmosphere of the star. ================================ Fraunhofer's spectral lines.
What is band spectrum?
A band spectrum is an absorption or emission spectrum consisting of bands of closely-spaced lines, characteristic of polyatomic molecules.
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.
What are the absorption lines in the infrared portion of the spectrum of a star that are produced by hyrdrogen are from?
The absorption lines in the infrared portion of the spectrum of a star that are produced by hydrogen are from the Balmer series. The Balmer series were discovered by Johann Balmer in 1885.
