The way I would explain it is quite difficult to understand, so this is what Google says. "The wavelength (or equivalently, frequency) of the photon is determined by the difference in energy between the two states. These emitted photons form the element's spectrum. The fact that only certain colors appear in an element's atomic emission spectrum means that only certain frequencies of light are emitted." I hope this helped.

Which of the following statements is not a description of asteroids?
seraphim [82]

Answer: Most of them lie in a belt between Earth and Mars.

Explanation:

Asteroids are small rocky bodies having irregular shape size which orbit sun. Majority of the asteroids are found in a belt between orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Scientists presume that these asteroids are remains of a planet that never formed between Mars and Jupiter due to great gravitational pull of the largest planet of the solar -system - Jupiter.

Thus, the incorrect description of the asteroids is: Most of them lie in a belt between Earth and Mars.
