How is the bright light spectra of elements produced?

Answer 1

An emission or absorption line in a spectrum that arises when an electron moves between two energy levels in an atom. A jump to a higher level requires an input of energy, and produces a dark absorption line. A drop to a lower level releases energy, producing a bright emission line.

Answer 2

The bright line spectra of elements are produced when the electrons in an atom move between energy levels. When electrons absorb energy, they jump to a higher energy level. When they return to a lower energy level, they emit this energy as light, creating distinct spectral lines for each element.

Answer 3

When electrons jump from the excited state to the ground state, the electrons emit energy in the form of light, producing a bright-line spectrum. Each element has its own unique bright-line spectrum.

Answer 4

Heat the element usually in a flame, the atoms absorb energy, their electrons 'jump' from their natural state to an outer energy level. When the electrons move back to their 'ground' state, the normal energy level they occupy, they release the energy as part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Some of that is a 'bright light' spectrum.

Answer 5

A spectral line is a single break in an otherwise continuous spectrum. As light passes through a gas, the physical conditions of said gas can create spectral lines.

Answer 6

when the electrons fall back into a lower energy level

Answer 7

A bright line spectrum is produced when an electron falls from a higher energy state to that of a lower energy state.

Answer 8

When electrons fall back to a lower enery level .

Answer 9

The dark line spectrum are formed by an individual atom, it is because in the gaseous state, the individual atoms are quite apart and they do not interact each other.
