Explain why ionized calcium can form absorption lines, but ionized hydrogen cannot.

Question Explain why ionized calcium can form absorption lines, but ionized hydrogen cannot. a. Neutral calcium contains more than one neutron; neutral hydrogen contains only one. There are no electrons in ionized hydrogen and absorption probability is very low. b. Neutral calcium contains more than one proton; neutral hydrogen contains only one. Hydrogen cannot be […]

Describe the process of spectrum production by a neon sign.

Question Describe the process of spectrum production by a neon sign. a. Neon atoms become excited by electricity, then an electron inside the atom goes to a higher energy level, emitting energy as a photon. b. Neon atoms become excited by rapid heating, then an electron inside the atom drops to a lower energy level, […]
