What does an emission spectrum show?

Chemistry

IrinaVladis [17]3 years ago

It shows the type of atoms/elements in a substance

Different types of atoms have different emission spectrum - a concept supported by Bohr quantum theory - hence one is able to identify elements in a substance using a method called spectroscopy.

Explanation:

When an electron jumps from a low energy orbital to a higher energy orbital in an atom, it absorbs a specific wavelength of electromagnetic radiation (This is called absorption spectrum). Vice versa, if the same electron jumps from a higher to a lower energy orbital it releases the equivalent quantum energy in electromagnetic wave (This is called emission spectrum). Different types of atoms of different elements have a unique spectrum identifier.

What is an ion? what is a valence electron? how is an ion formed?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Ions are formed when atoms lose or gain electrons in order to fulfill the octet rule and have full outer valence electron shells. When they lose electrons, they become positively charged and are named cations. When they gain electrons, they are negatively charged and are named anions.

liberstina [14]

Answer:

the correct option is B

Explanation:

The correct option is b, since if we reach pH 7, it means that the acid-base reaction is neutralized, therefore the base has been neutralized by an acid or vice versa, without taking into account the proteins or the amounts of both components .
