Cause there different.
Why are they different?
Cause if everything was the same we wouldn't be here talking about this. Its life.

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.
Can an element can be identified by its spectrum.?
The wave lengths of the lines in the spectrum are different for each chemical element.
Can an element be identified by its spectrum.?
The wave lengths of the lines in 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.
What is the relationship of the colors you saw and the lines of the electromagnetic spectrum produced by metals?
Each chemical element has a different spectrum; and each color has a specific wavelength.
What is the relationship between the colors you saw and the lines of the electromagnetic spectrum produced by the metals?
Each chemical element has a different spectrum; and each color has a specific wavelength.
Each element will give off the same spectrum of light?
NO!!!! Each element gives off a unique spectrum of light.
Is the spacing between the lines in the spectrum of an element constant or does it vary?
The spacing between the lines in the spectrum of an element are constant. This is called the emission spectrum of an element. Each element has a unique emission spectra that will be the same each time.
Why do different elements give off a colorful light when heated?
The color depends on the lines of the emission spectrum of each different element.
How is the spectrum for an element similar to a person's fingerprint?
Each element has its own unique spectrum, just as each person has his/her own unique set of fingerprints.
How elements of stars are detected?
The emission spectrum of each element has characteristic lines for each element. Analyzing the spectrum of a star, you can figure out what elements are present, and also get an estimate on how much there is of each element. For more information, check the Wikipedia article on "emission spectrum".
How is it possible to identify an element by looking at spectrum?
Each element has a unique adsorption and/or radiant spectrum. If you compare the spectrum you get with a list of known spectrums you can make a match.
