Describe the cause of atomic emission spectrum of an element

Chemistry
1 answer:
AnnZ [28]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The de-exitation of electron to its lower energy level cause the emission spectrum of an element.

Explanation:

The electron is jumped into higher level and back into lower level by absorbing and releasing the energy.

The process is called excitation and de-excitation.

Excitation:

When the energy is provided to the atom the electrons by absorbing the energy jump to the higher energy levels. This process is called excitation. The amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the energy difference of orbits.  For example if electron jumped from K to L it must absorbed the energy which is equal the energy difference of these two level. The excited electron thus move back to lower energy level which is K by releasing the energy because electron can not stay longer in higher energy level and comes to ground state.

De-excitation:

When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations. This energy is exactly equal to the energy difference between the orbits. These radiations gives the emission spectrum of that element. The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum .

Pressure is this sample?
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

P = 164 Atm

Explanation:

PV = nRT => P = nRT/V

n = 10.0 moles

R = 0.08206 L·Atm/mol·K

T = 27.0°C = 300 K

V = 1.50 Liters

P = (10.0 mol)(0.08206 L·Atm/mol·K )(300 K)/(1.50 Liters) = 164.12 Atm ≅ 164 Atm (3 sig. figs.)

nataly862011 [7]
For water you could add oil..ex: cooking oil separates form water because water is heavier than oil.

For Magnesium Sulfate you could add Sodium Carbonate..ex: Sodium Carb reacts to Mg Sulfate adding a darker hue to the liquid and adding a lot of bubbles.

For Sodium Carbonate you could add Sulfuric Acid..ex: Sulfuric Acid would add a reaction to the Sodium Carb that would resembling water boiling

Answer:

The answer to this question is D.

Explanation: We know that only plants have a cell wall so that is helpful and we know that plants are green because of their chloroplast. So the answer is D, cell wall, and chloroplast.
