What do the different colors in a line spectrum represent? why are the spectra for each element unique?

Physics
1 answer:
Lana71 [14]3 years ago

They typically represents different wavelengths of element due to its energy emission in the form of visible light. When an electron of that particular element move from a higher energy level down to a lower energy level, it gives off energy in the form of photon emission. Atom of a certain element has a unique electron arrangement thus it can considered that particular element's spectrum is unique.

An auditorium measures 43.0m × 18.0m × 15.0m. The density of air is 1.20 kg/m3. What is the volume of the room in cubic feet? (D
frez [133]
The question here would be what is the volume of the room. The density of air that is given has no use. We simply multiply the dimensions given of the room to determine  the volume.

<span>43.0m × 18.0m × 15.0m = 11610m^3 ( 3.28 ft / 1 m)^3 = 4.09 x 10^5 ft^3</span>

Why does an energy transfer not always result in phase change?
mash [69]

Answer:

These energy exchanges are not changes in kinetic energy. They are changes in bonding energy between the molecules. "If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance
