To be sure that the color is due to sodium, do a flame test. This is used to identify the presence of small number of metal ions in a compound. For sodium, the brilliant color of bright yellow is a result of an excited electron in a very high level of energy and fall to a lower level called the ground state. 

In addition, metals have different jump sizes in the energy level and this means that each different metal will have a different pattern of spectral lines, which results to different flame color.

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

This type of spectrum is called line emission spectrum . Because it consists of lines . It is emission spectrum because it is due to emission of radiation from a source .

b ) The wavelength of a photon  is inversely proportional to its energy .  Photon  due to transition between n = 1 and n = 3 will have higher energy than

that due to transition between n = 2 and n = 5 . So the later photon ( B)  will have greater wavelength or photon  due to transition between n = 2 and n = 5 will have greater wavelength .

Explain the geometrical meaning of vertor Product of<br>two vectors<br>​
patriot [66]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

For the geometric meaning, I've attached a parallelogram showing two vectors a and B and also the angle between them as θ.

We can see that the two vectors are adjacent to each other.

So the magnitude of the product of the two vectors is simply the area of the parallelogram which is base x height. Thus;

Magnitude = |a| sin θ × |b|

This can be rewritten as;

|a|•|b| sin θ
