Why do different elements make different color flames when you burn them?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dovator [93]3 years ago
7 0
When you heat an atom, some of its electrons are "excited* to higher energy levels. When an electron drops from one level to a lower energy level, it emits a quantum of energy. ... The different mix of energy differences for each atom produces different colours. Each metal gives a characteristic flame emission spectrum.

horrorfan [7]
The correct answer is:  [C]:  
___________________________________________________________
          "<span>pressure and the number of gas molecules are directly related."
___________________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>:  The conclusion was: "</span> as the pressure in a system increases, the number of gas molecules increases" — over the course of many trials.
          This means that the "pressure" and the "number of gas molecules" are directly related.

Furthermore, this conclusion is consistent with the "ideal gas law" equation:

     " PV = nRT " ; 
____________________________________________________________
in which:

    "P = Pressure" ; 
    "n = number of gas molecules" ; 
___________________________________________________________
        All other factors held equal, when "n" (the "number of gas molecules") 
 increases in value (on the "right-hand side" of the equation), the value for "P" (the "pressure" — on the "left-hand side" of the equation), increases.

What reactions are involved in making plastic bags and what are the molecules that make up a plastic bag like?
denpristay [2]
Plastic bags are made up of plastic film, non-woven fabric, or plastic textile. The molecules that are present in plastic bags are polymers. Polymers are large molecules made up of repeating units called monomers.
I know this isn't much, but I hope it helps! :)
