It has to do with the energy level accessible to the electron in a particular type of bond or orbital. The difference between the two energy levels determines the energy of the quantum step and consequently the frequency of the light absorbed or emitted.

What the four kinds of light sensitive receptors found in the retina?
Rods, cones that absorb long wavelength light (red),cones that absorb middle wavelength light (green), and cones that absorb short ways length light (blue)
Where is the pigment produced?
Pigments have wavelength-specific absorption; the color you see is the color they don't absorb.
The color with the wavelength is?
Color is the perception of wavelength. We see the colors means that we are seeing the waves with a specific wavelengths.
How frequency and wavelength related to specific region of the spectrum?
what
What color does not absorb all wavelength of light?
Black is the only color that does absorb all wavelengths of light.White is the color that reflects all wavelengths of light.All other colors absorb only certain wavelengths of light and reflect the rest.
Which makes salt solution colorless?
The fact that the solution does not absorb any one wavelength of visible light more than any other such wavelength.
What determines which photon an atom can absorb or emit?
Generally if they are of the same wavelength, then the atom will absorb the photon at that wavelength.
What is the origin of spectrum?
jumping of electrons when they excited from one orbital to another of lower energy.They jump and absorb light of specific wavelength.
What the four kinds of light sensitive receptors found in the retina?
Rods, cones that absorb long wavelength light (red),cones that absorb middle wavelength light (green), and cones that absorb short ways length light (blue)
Which color light does Cyan toner absorb?
what is the wavelength of visible light
Why are objects a specific color?
Because the pigment that the object has on it absorbs all but the specific wavelength of "light" that the object appears as (orange things absorb all but orange), so when the light reflects back to the eye, that's the color it sees.
Why will be change in the potato cube in concentrated sugar solution and distilled water respectively after an hour?
In sugar solution the potato cube absorb the solution , but in distilled solution the cube do not absorb it.
Where is the pigment produced?
Pigments have wavelength-specific absorption; the color you see is the color they don't absorb.
How are things colored?
Color of any specific object comes from its wavelength. If an object has a certain wavelength, it absorbs some colors and reflects those that it doesn't absorb off...towards the eye. In other words, if you see a red ball, that means that the ball is absorbing every color of light except red.
What is sunlight changed into when it is absorbed?
When sunlight is absorbed it is changed into heat. This is because of the wavelength taken to absorb it.
How do you spell dissolves?
The correct spelling is "dissolve" (to go into solution, or to absorb into solution).
Does absorbance increase or decrease as the solution concentration of the substance increase?
The light is absorbed at a specific wavelength and this is because the electrons in the chemical bonds only absorb certain wavelengths of light. So, more concentration, more bonds and more electrons to absorb the light.
