Why do larger gases such as Neon produce more color bands (line spectra) than smaller gases like Hydrogen?

Chemistry

LekaFEV [45]3 years ago

Larger gases produces more spectral lines than the smaller gases because they have more orbitals in their atoms.
Hydrogen has only one orbital in which an electron orbits. At the excited state, that is, when the electron gains energy, the number of energy level it can transcend is very few. For larger elements, they have more orbitals and when excited, they can move from the ground state to other energy levels at which they produce various unique spectral lines.

Answer:

Explanation:

The two green substances are not the same.  Most of their properties are different, except some are alike.  Since not all of their properties are matching, they are not the same substance.

I am not sure if this is what you were looking for, but if it is then I am happy to help.

For each element, predict where the "jump " occurs for successive ionization energies. (For example, does the jump occur between
vichka [17]

Answer:

A jump occurs when a core electron is removed.

Explanation:

A jump in ionization energy occurs when a core electron is removed. A large jump in the ionization energy easily be seen from the electronic configuration of an element.

For Beryllium, the electronic configuration of is 1s2 2s2.

There are two valence electrons in the outermost shell hence the ionization energy data for beryllium will show a sudden jump or increase in going from the second to the third ionization energy owing to the removal of a core electron

The electronic configuration for Nitrogen is 1s2 2s2 2p3. Five valence electrons are found in the outermost shell so the ionization energy data for nitrogen will show a sudden jump or increase in going from the fifth to sixth ionization energy because of the removal of a core electron

The electronic configuration of oxygen is 1s2 2s2 2p4. There are six valence electrons hence ionization energy for oxygen atom will show a sudden jump or increase in going from the sixth to the seventh ionization energy because of the removal of a core electron

The electronic configuration of Lithium is 1s2 2s1

There is one valence electron in its outermost shell so its ionization energy data will show a sudden jump or increase in going from the first to the second ionization energy because of the removal of a core electron.
