We are given with the following pairs:
<span>carbon and oxygen
hydrogen and helium
gold and silver
and we are asked if there is a pair that will produce the same spectrum. The answer is
</span>No two elements produce the same spectrum.This is because a light spectrum is unique to each element.
The formula for water is H2O so there would have to be two Hyrdogens and one oxygen. Therefore it would be 4g of Hydrogen and 16g of Oxygen leaving you with 20g.
The answer is D.
Hope this helps :) ~
