Explain the difference between the continuous spectrum of white light and the atomic emission spectrum of an element?

The difference between continuous spectrum and the atomic emission espectrum of an element is that in emission spectrum, only certain specific frequencies of light are emitted while in a continuous spectrum, a continuous range of colors are seen in the visible light.


Would the atomic emission spectrum for each sample change if you repeated the procedure?

no i don't know how to explain it, but thats the answer.


Explain why the fluorescence emission spectrum of a polyaromatic molecule in solution mirrors the shape of the absorption spectrum regardless of the excitation frequency?

Generally fluorescence emission spectrum is independent of the excitation wavelength because of the rapid internal conversion from higher energy initial excited states to the lowest vibrational energy level of the excited state


Explain the effect of the nitrate ion in solution on the color emission?

The nitrate ion is the oxidizing agent in the compound without it you could not burn the chemicals and you could not produce a spectrum so there would be no emission of color


Explain the difference between electronics and electricity?

Electronics is a science dealing with electrons emission electrical is a science dealing with electron flow


What is the significance of the line spectrum of hydrogen?

the line spectrum of the hydrogen spectrum indicates that only certain energies are allowed for the electron of the hydrogen atom. In other words, the energy of the electron in the hydrogen atom is quantized.


How did Bohr explain the line spectrum of hydrogen?

The difference in energy between the energy levels determines color of light emitted when an electron moves from one energy level to another.


If considering two different atoms explain the spectral lines?

Spectral lines are bright or dark lines in an otherwise continuous or uniform spectrum. They are caused by an excess (emission lines) or deficiency (absorption lines) of observed photons within certain frequency ranges. Absorption lines usually come from a background continuum; photons are absorbed when passing through matter to the observer. Absorption occurs when an electron within an atom absorbs a photons energy and is bumped up to an excited state. Emission lines usually come from hot gases; photons are emitted from these gases and reach the observer. Emission occurs when an electron within an atom falls back down to it's ground state and releases energy in the form of a photon.
