Then as the electrons in the atoms fall back down, they emit electromagnetic radiation (light). The amount of light emitted at different wavelengths, called the emission spectrum, is shown for a discharge tube filled with hydrogen gas in Figure 12.6 below.
A chemist (from Greek chēm (ía) alchemy; replacing chemist from Medieval Latin alchimista[1]) is a scientist trained in the study of chemistry. Chemists study the composition of matter and its properties. Chemists carefully describe the properties they study in terms of quantities, with detail on the level of molecules and their component atoms. Chemists carefully measure substance proportions, reaction rates, and other chemical properties. The word 'chemist' is also used to address Pharmacists in Commonwealth English.
The answers are
The age of the oldest stars
How fast distant galaxies are moving away from us
Patterns of background radiation.
Explanation:
The Astronomers calculate the age of the universe by looking for oldest stars, and by measuring the rate of expansion of the universe and back to big bang.
The Astronomers used the techniques like the age of oldest stars, how fast the distant galaxies are moving away from us, patterns of background radiation and along with the Big Bang as reference point, they estimate that the universe may be approximately 12 billion years old.
Answer:
That is a compound. If it was an element it would either just be Na or Cl.
