An incandescent gas emits a continuous spectrum of light, encompassing a wide range of frequencies. The specific frequencies emitted depend on the composition and temperature of the gas.
The gas typically found in incandescent light bulbs is argon.
In a fluorescent light bulb, electricity passes through a gas (such as mercury vapor) causing it to emit ultraviolet light. The ultraviolet light then strikes a phosphor coating on the inside of the bulb, causing it to emit visible light. This conversion process is more energy-efficient compared to incandescent bulbs.
Bubbles can emit light when they are filled with a gas that is excited by an external energy source, such as sound waves or ultraviolet light. This excitation causes the gas molecules to release light photons, which creates the glowing effect seen in some bubbles.
Yes, gas stoves emit light in the form of a blue flame when the gas is ignited. This light is a result of the combustion process of the gas with oxygen in the air, creating a visible flame.
That varies, depending on the technology. In an incandescent light bulb, a wire is heated when electricity passes through it, until it glows. In a fluorescent light bulb, atoms in a gas get into an excited state, and emit light when the electrons fall back to their normal energy level.
When they exit their exited state. When an atom is bombarded by photons, it will often times absorb the photon. A photon is a unit of energy, so this energy is added to the atom, "extiting" it. However, atoms may only remain in ths excited state for a short period of time, and will eventually release the photon, reemiting it as light, and then the atom will return to its normal state.

An incandescent body of gas is called a nebula. Nebulas are large clouds of dust and gas in outer space that emit light due to the energy generated by the stars or other processes happening within them.
An inert gas such as argon.
The white powder used in incandescent gas mantles is typically made of thorium dioxide. This powder is added to the fabric mantle to help it emit a bright white light when heated by the gas flame. However, due to health and environmental concerns, some manufacturers are moving towards using alternative materials.
a mixture of frequencies.
Fluorescent lights use gas and electricity to produce light, while incandescent lights use a filament that heats up to produce light. Fluorescent lights are more energy-efficient and last longer than incandescent lights.
Fluorescent lights are more efficient than incandescent lights because they convert a greater portion of electrical energy into visible light. While incandescent bulbs produce light by heating a filament, which wastes a significant amount of energy as heat, fluorescent bulbs use gas and phosphors to emit light, resulting in less wasted energy. This efficiency allows fluorescent lights to produce more lumens per watt, making them brighter and longer-lasting than incandescent bulbs. As a result, they consume less electricity and reduce overall energy costs.
